Short filmTranscript
00:00:16My 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 star I secretly built
00:00:36from the ground up. I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter. We share the same music, but never the
00:00:45same 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.
00:01:08I have no idea what you do to me, Casey. How you make me feel.
00:01:12You are my favorite song.
00:01:20I lose control.
00:01:22My little...
00:01:26I want you, Dex.
00:01:28I need you.
00:01:32Good.
00:01:35And because you're already mine,
00:01:39I'm gonna call you on that stage tonight.
00:01:41I'm gonna sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:01:44I'm gonna kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:46I'm gonna claim every inch of you.
00:01:49Note by note.
00:01:51In front of the whole world.
00:02:08Hey, Case.
00:02:09Um,
00:02:10what's with all the secret phone calls?
00:02:12Just, what are you hiding?
00:02:14Nothing, it's just work stuff.
00:02:18Okay.
00:02:20It's time I come clean, too.
00:02:22Once he finishes this concert,
00:02:24the echo mask will come off.
00:02:26And I can finally be the real me.
00:02:29His echo,
00:02:30and his Casey.
00:02:34You are gonna be my lucky charm tonight,
00:02:36like always.
00:02:49I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:00I'm gonna say I'm not too.
00:03:02No better than that.
00:03:04Take a flight from the scene.
00:03:06I'm gonna score in his back.
00:03:09I'm gonna score in my way.
00:03:12I need some nothing.
00:03:14I need champagne his fame.
00:03:23And now, for the star of our show, the world's hottest pop star and my soulmate, Dexter Hayes!
00:03:36Wait for me, right here?
00:03:41Dexter Hayes is my ticket to the top of the charts, but I'll never lock him down as long as
00:03:46he's in bed with his frumpy assistant.
00:03:49Applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody!
00:03:55Fans already love us. Dexter Hayes, you will be mine.
00:04:00Scarlet Heart, Dexter Hayes groupie turned wannabe pop queen. She's always throwing herself at my boyfriend. Maybe once he puts
00:04:08a ring on it tonight, she'll finally take the hint.
00:04:12I've got a really special one for y'all tonight. Hope you enjoy.
00:04:15Go, Dexter!
00:04:20Shit! The backing mix is corrupted. I can't let Dexter's show get ruined. Echo can fix this.
00:04:34Are you here? I need your help.
00:04:39What the hell is she up to?
00:04:43Well, I guess the, uh, system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes, so...
00:04:49I'll be right back.
00:04:54There. Your gear from the studio.
00:04:57Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:04:59Dad! We've talked about this. In public, I am not your daughter, and I'm not Echo.
00:05:04But Dexter should know how hard you've worked for him. You made him the star he is.
00:05:10I'm telling him tonight. But for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:15Oh, that's my girl.
00:05:19When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms.
00:05:42Oh my god. These are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs. Is Casey... Echo?
00:05:57Time to save Dex's concert.
00:05:59Play that song! Play that song!
00:06:02God, where's Casey? She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:05The show is a disaster. The fans are waiting. Can you please find her? I need her.
00:06:08No, Dexter. I'm the one you need.
00:06:12What?
00:06:21This is Echo's novel?
00:06:25Are you her? Are you her?
00:06:32Listen, can you please save this song?
00:06:35I already did.
00:06:38Wait.
00:06:41Dexter, there's...
00:06:42One more thing I should probably show you.
00:06:46Casey has been hiding another man.
00:06:54All those secret phone calls, dodged questions.
00:06:57Casey was cheating on me this whole time?
00:07:00Dexter, I'm so sorry. I would never, never do this to you.
00:07:07Thanks.
00:07:15Wait, didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:07:19Uh, and 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.
00:07:37And next, your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:07:43I, I'm a man, I'm a man, I'm a man.
00:07:51I'm a man, I'm a man.
00:07:53I'm a man, I'm a man.
00:08:03Every time when I look, I remember the time I saw you, I'd.
00:08:09One thing to remember you by
00:08:12The time I looked into your eye
00:08:15A secret feeling again
00:08:17I know I was when I died
00:08:55I know I was when I died
00:09:11How could Casey do this to me?
00:09:18Everyone, give it up for Dexter Hayes!
00:09:32He promised he'd call me up on stage to announce our relationship
00:09:37I loved her
00:09:38And she betrayed me
00:09:50Oh my god!
00:09:52Dexie!
00:09:53Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:57Yes!
00:10:02Oh my god!
00:10:03Oh my god!
00:10:03Dexie!
00:10:04Yes!
00:10:06Tonight 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, but she made my career and Casey betrayed me
00:10:25It was all a lie
00:10:29All right, I can play along with his engagement
00:10:32And I can move on from the woman who broke my heart
00:10:42Hey, uh, Casey
00:10:46Hey, uh, Casey
00:10:53You promised me
00:10:58That you'd tell the world about us tonight
00:11:00But instead, you'd propose and put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:07Casey, you gave me no choice
00:11:10I gave you everything
00:11:14I loved you
00:11:15Do you love her?
00:11:18I owe her
00:11:19Okay, I owe her
00:11:21All right, I don't
00:11:22You owe her?
00:11:25Scarlet 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, so that's why
00:11:37What are you talking about?
00:11:41Scarlet is Echo
00:11:48You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:52Well, I know she is
00:11:53You know what?
00:11:55I'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
00:12:03How could you believe her lies?
00:12:05Come 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?
00:12:15To be a music industry power couple?
00:12:19To 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
00:12:28Isn't it?
00:12:31Not loyalty
00:12:33Just
00:12:34Your music
00:12:37What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:42This is my notebook
00:12:44Full of songs that I wrote
00:12:46For Dexter's first triple platinum album
00:12:49That's my notebook
00:12:50How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:52I'm a musical genius
00:12:55And you're just
00:12:57Dexter's little errand girl
00:12:59Give it back!
00:13:00Dexter, she cut me!
00:13:02See, what has gotten into you?
00:13:04I don't
00:13:05I know who you are anymore
00:13:07Dexy, baby
00:13:09I know
00:13:10All about girls like her
00:13:12They want fame and money without really ever having to work for it
00:13:15She's taking advantage of you
00:13:18She has been for years
00:13:20Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this
00:13:23Scarlet is not Echo
00:13:25Then tell me why I shouldn't
00:13:26Okay?
00:13:27Why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:32Go wait in the car
00:13:32Please
00:13:38Casey
00:13:44Look, I know that you've been hiding things
00:13:45So please just
00:13:47Just tell me the truth
00:13:49Okay, right now
00:13:50Or we'll lose us forever
00:13:55Please
00:13:59Please
00:14:08The truth doesn't matter anymore
00:14:10You don't trust me anyway
00:14:16We're over
00:14:18Dex
00:14:22Goodbye
00:14:23Forever
00:14:44The 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
00:14:59Dad
00:15:01I gave Dex everything
00:15:03I made his career, but
00:15:06He doesn't want me
00:15:07He never did
00:15:08What happened, Princess?
00:15:11Scarlet Hart
00:15:12She stole him
00:15:14And now she's trying to steal my identity
00:15:16I'll come get you
00:15:22Casey
00:15:22Casey, where are you?
00:15:33Looks like Dexter's whore is awake
00:15:35Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man
00:15:41Who are you?
00:15:42Let me go
00:15:43Don't worry, Scarlet
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 soul mate
00:16:03I wasn't stealing him
00:16:05We were in love
00:16:07Or I thought we were
00:16:10We'll see about that, won't we?
00:16:12The only way you'll live tonight is if Dexter chooses to save you
00:16:22Where the hell is everybody?
00:16:27Dressing room
00:16:28Come alone
00:16:29Choose to save Scarlet Hart
00:16:31And we'll spare them
00:16:33Choose your little assistant
00:16:35And they both die
00:16:37You've reached Casey
00:16:39I can't come to the phone right now
00:16:41Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:45Casey?
00:16:46So she never left the concert
00:16:48Get back to the concert hall now
00:16:51Dexter is coming
00:16:53We'll see who his true love is
00:16:56You psychos!
00:16:58Are you hoping that he chooses you over his fiancée?
00:17:03Obviously not
00:17:05She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry
00:17:09You fucked him too?
00:17:11God
00:17:12Our precious Dexter
00:17:14Soiled by a dirty star fucker
00:17:17Girls like you don't deserve him
00:17:19You don't deserve to live
00:17:22No one knows what the real Echo looks like
00:17:24So if Casey dies
00:17:27Then the truth dies with her
00:17:29That's not true
00:17:31First you steal my identity
00:17:33Now you're trying to get me murdered
00:17:34You're psychotic
00:17:36Oh, don't worry Casey
00:17:37If you die today
00:17:39Dex and I will make a song about you
00:17:41And maybe it'll even be the lead single on our new album
00:17:44You're crazier than they are
00:17:46Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:53Casey
00:17:53Dexter
00:18:01Dexter
00:18:01Dexter
00:18:02Dexter
00:18:04Dexter
00:18:10Dexter
00:18:10Okay guys, let's
00:18:13Let's just put the guns down
00:18:14Okay?
00:18:15We can't do that Dexter
00:18:17We're your biggest fans
00:18:20We're doing this for you
00:18:22Okay, well if you love me
00:18:24Alright
00:18:25You'll put the gun down
00:18:26And then let these two go
00:18:27Please
00:18:28No, that's not how this works
00:18:30Dexie
00:18:31You would be nothing without Echo
00:18:34We're engaged now
00:18:35You can't let me die
00:18:37Dex
00:18:38All the love we ever had
00:18:39All the memories
00:18:41All the I love you's you told me
00:18:43Did they mean anything?
00:18:45You must choose one to live
00:18:47Will it be your future wife
00:18:51Or your mistress
00:18:53Who really holds the key to your heart
00:18:55Dexter Hayes
00:18:56They said if I don't choose Scarlet
00:18:58Then they both die
00:19:00I can save Casey
00:19:01But I
00:19:01I have to break her heart
00:19:04Which one really holds the key to your heart
00:19:07Dexter Hayes
00:19:13You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:16And you loved him
00:19:18You leeched off him
00:19:20For half a decade
00:19:21If that's what you really think, Dex
00:19:23Go ahead
00:19:24Make your choice
00:19:26Choose now or they both die
00:19:27Dexter
00:19:29Dexter, please
00:19:30Think of everything I've done for you
00:19:32You dumped her
00:19:33You chose me
00:19:34Don't let them murder me
00:19:36That's email
00:19:37We're pulling the trigger in
00:19:38Three
00:19:40Two
00:19:42One
00:19:42Okay, okay, okay
00:19:43I can't risk them killing Casey
00:19:46Scarlet, alright
00:19:47I choose Scarlet
00:19:53Dexter
00:19:54I'm gonna fight
00:19:55I was so scared
00:19:57He chose Scarlet?
00:19:59Good choice
00:20:00Cheating whores deserve to die
00:20:03Now, wait a minute
00:20:03You told me that
00:20:04You made your choice, Dexter Hayes

00:20:33Put the gun down
00:20:34Goodbye, Dexter

00:20:47Let's go, let's go
00:20:48Go, okay
00:20:49Oh, come on
00:20:57It's gonna be okay
00:20:58Okay?
00:20:59You left me to die
00:21:01And for the record
00:21:02I never needed your money
00:21:04I was right to walk away
00:21:06Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made
00:21:10Look, Casey
00:21:11You don't understand, alright
00:21:12They were gonna make me
00:21:13I'm done
00:21:16Living in your shadow decks
00:21:18Goodbye
00:21:24Casey, Casey
00:21:25Hey
00:21:33Casey
00:21:34Casey, stop
00:21:35Please, stop
00:21:36Please, please
00:21:37Where are you gonna go?
00:21:38Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:40You should be asking yourself that same question
00:21:43Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone
00:21:46You're delusional
00:21:47He doesn't need you
00:21:49He has Echo
00:21:50Yeah
00:21:51Sure he does
00:21:53Fame really has changed you, Dexter Hayes
00:21:59Fame changed me?
00:22:02Okay
00:22:03And what about you?
00:22:05You're the one that's been sneaking around behind my back this whole time
00:22:10I never betrayed you how you betrayed me by putting that ring on Scarlet's finger
00:22:15You chose her and you left me for dead
00:22:19Oh, you know what you did?
00:22:19No, Casey, you don't understand I was trying...
00:22:46Oh my god, that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:52I'm so sorry I didn't come sooner, baby girl.
00:22:57You're here now.
00:22:58Take me home.
00:23:26Jason Hayes!
00:23:29Jason!
00:23:30You have to kill!
00:23:31You have to kill everything!
00:23:33Casey!
00:23:34Casey!
00:23:36Let me explain!
00:23:41Scarlet.
00:23:42Mrs. Hayes, you should have seen it.
00:23:44I almost died, and that desperate skank cheated on Dexter with some sugar daddy.
00:23:50I always knew she was a gold digger.
00:23:53She tried to trap Dexter first, and when that failed, she went after the CEO of the biggest
00:23:59music label in the world.
00:24:01Dexter, she never cared about you.
00:24:03She's been lying to you this entire time.
00:24:05All she ever cared about was money and power.
00:24:08I thought Casey loved me, but the whole time she was in bed with the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:20Forget him, princess.
00:24:21Hm?
00:24:22You are much too talented to be running some rockstar errands.
00:24:26How could I be so blind?
00:24:31Three days from now, at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala, announcing you as the new CEO
00:24:37of Reed Records, and my daughter, the heiress to my empire.
00:24:42It's time to show the world who you really are.
00:24:53My back is pressed.
00:25:01My back is pressed.
00:25:08My back is pressed.
00:25:17The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:25:20Look, guys, we have one week, all right, to finish this song before the release.
00:25:25The Echo that I know can put together a perfect studio mix in hours.
00:25:30You can't even fix a simple beat or a key?
00:25:33What's going on?
00:25:35Look, Scarlett, I just gotta ask, are you really Echo?
00:25:43Are you really Echo?
00:25:49Dexy, of course I am.
00:25:52It's just your new assistant.
00:25:55He's been messing, he's messing with my tracks.
00:25:57He's obviously trying to sabotage our new album.
00:26:00I mean, look.
00:26:03Last Saved by Max.
00:26:05Yeah, that's because you don't know how to-
00:26:07Okay, you know what?
00:26:08Echo would never put her name on garbage like this.
00:26:13Mr. Hayes, please, listen.
00:26:15It's Dexter.
00:26:16And I'm sorry, but my last assistant would have never screamed me over like that.
00:26:21You're fired.
00:26:29See you again.
00:26:45Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:26:49Writing love songs used to be so easy with Casey here.
00:27:05We're sorry, you have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:27:11All right, she broke my heart and she moved on.
00:27:14So why can't I do the same?
00:27:34Look what we just got.
00:27:36An invitation to the biggest industry event of the year.
00:27:39The Reed Records Music Hall of Fame Gala.
00:27:49Look, I'm not interested.
00:27:51Okay, we have a song to finish.
00:27:52Dexter.
00:27:54You said it yourself.
00:27:55They can lay down a track in hours.
00:27:57We have to go.
00:27:58This is a personal invitation from Mr. Ed Reed himself.
00:28:03Okay, look, I know what you're thinking, but Casey probably meant nothing to him.
00:28:10He's a billionaire record executive.
00:28:12I'm sure he has a whole roster of scorned assistants lining up to get on their knees and work for
00:28:16a few extra bucks.
00:28:17You have to go and you have to impress him, okay?
00:28:20He could make or break our careers.
00:28:24Okay, I guess you're right.
00:28:25Of course I am.
00:28:28We are the industry's it couple.
00:28:31So now, forget about that stupid little assistant of yours and start getting ready.
00:28:37I mean, what was so special about her anyway?
00:28:39Her coarse, tangled hair or her dull, crusty skin or maybe those hideous, god-awful clothes?
00:28:54I'm Echo, I'm the Reed heiress, and I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:29:05How does it feel to be at the event of the year as the industry's new it couple?
00:29:13We're honored.
00:29:14And with Reed Records on our side, our album is sure to be the number one hit of the decade.
00:29:18Are you excited to meet this mysterious new CEO of Reed Records?
00:29:23I hear Ed Reed is introducing the whole world to his daughter, the heiress to the Reed merchant.
00:29:29Do you think she's going to be the new CEO?
00:29:31I don't know, who is this mysterious heiress?
00:29:34She is Ed Reed's daughter.
00:29:36I'll bet she'll be making a very splashy entrance.
00:29:39Whoever she is, we need to impress her, okay?
00:29:41She could be our ticket to a number one album.
00:29:43Look, here she is now!
00:29:48G-
00:29:55No fucking way!
00:29:57G-
00:29:58G-
00:29:59G-
00:29:59G-
00:29:59G-
00:30:21Kasey?
00:30:25Kasey?
00:30:27Hey Dex.
00:30:28Long time no see.
00:30:32Dex has already moved on with Scarlet.
00:30:35I should be happy walking away from him.
00:30:38So why does my heart still ache?
00:30:56Ignore her.
00:30:57And instead focus on kissing up to Ed Reed so he introduces us to the new CEO.
00:31:02You should listen to her Dexter.
00:31:05All we need to do is get on their good side and our album will go straight to number one.
00:31:10She's right.
00:31:11I have to impress Ed Reed and this new CEO if I want our album to be a hit.
00:31:32Let's do it.
00:31:33What a terrible surprise!
00:31:35I should have known you'd sneak in here hunting for your next sugar daddy, but this party is for the
00:31:39elite of the music industry only.
00:31:42I suggest you wait on the street corner with the other hookers.
00:31:45But the party's just getting started. I can't miss the big announcement.
00:31:52Why? So 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. Leave, or I will have security escort you out.
00:32:07I'd love to see you try.
00:32:12Jealous?
00:32:13I loved him, and those feelings don't just go away. How could she change his mind so easily?
00:32:21You 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. She's just a desperate assistant, playing dress-up.
00:32:36Imagine getting dragged by THE Scarlet Heart. I would never emotionally recover.
00:32:40Where do you think she got the jewels, though?
00:32:42Probably out whoring herself to old men, just like all those desperate social climbers in our industry.
00:32:49Hmm. They got that right.
00:32:51Hmm. Is that so?
00:32:53Tell me something, Scarlet. Is it really me, who's putting on an act, or...?
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 in pay
00:33:20-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 cancelled so fucking
00:33:31hard, your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public.
00:33:36Mr. Reed.
00:33:37Hi. Dexter Hayes.
00:33:39Thank you so much for the invite.
00:33:41You've always been a true hero of mine.
00:33:45Well, I'd really love to put that, um...
00:33:47Well, that incident with my assistant behind us.
00:33:51Oh, Dexter Hayes. Of course I can.
00:33:55Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face, when he realizes the assistant he rejected is my
00:34:01daughter, and the heiress to the Reed Records' fortune.
00:34:05Well, you know, sir, um, well, you may or may not have heard about, uh, the record that Scarlet Heart
00:34:10and I are, uh, working on.
00:34:11I really think that between my lyrics and, well, her producing, and your musical genius over the last many decades,
00:34:18I 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, the new CEO, I, I, well, that would
00:34:33make me forever, forever grateful.
00:34:35Why don't you put in a good word yourself?
00:34:38The new CEO is already here.
00:34:51Casey? Casey? Casey? Casey? Casey?
00:34:57Uh, I've, I've been trying to call you the last few days, and, well, I guess I'm just surprised that
00:35:04instead you just showed up here.
00:35:05I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone, for wanting to hear his voice again. But after what
00:35:12he did to me, I couldn't give him the satisfaction.
00:35:15Oh, you've been calling me for the last few days. What, you missed me already?
00:35:20Did Ed Reed bring Casey as his date?
00:35:24This event is invite only.
00:35:29Yeah. Dang, I guess I left my invite at home, but I think I'm gonna stay.
00:35:35You know, Scarlet, on the other hand, though, has been throwing around nothing but vile slander and empty accusations all
00:35:42night.
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.
00:35:49Yeah, right. The only ones who can remove me are Mr. Reed himself, or the new CEO. You have no
00:35:56power here.
00:35:57Okay, guys. Ed Reed and this new CEO are about to announce our new album. Can we have this conversation
00:36:05later?
00:36:05Oh, Dex. You forgot to say please.
00:36:12Wait, Casey, what?
00:36:18Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to announce tonight's special guest.
00:36:27Reed 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.
00:36:38Someone who grew up listening to me play piano, who has written hundreds of songs, and never put her name
00:36:44on 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.
00:37:11The new CEO of Reed Records.
00:37:13My princess.
00:37:16And the light of my life.
00:37:18My daughter.
00:37:20Casey Reed.
00:37:25What?
00:37:30No.
00:37:55That's the Reed heiress?
00:37:57Holy shit. She's not a sugar baby. She'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?
00:38:08She just committed career suicide.
00:38:11Mr. Reed, your gift. For the lady of the hour.
00:38:14Ugh.
00:38:15That's millions of dollars of gold.
00:38:18Dad, this is too much.
00:38:20Well, something from your old man.
00:38:21And now Dexter will see that you're worth more than your weight in gold.
00:38:25This cannot be happening.
00:38:27She's a nobody.
00:38:30I knew Casey was keeping secrets from me, but I didn't know she was hiding who she was.
00:38:36Ed Reed was never her sugar daddy.
00:38:38He was her father.
00:38:39This 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.
00:38:48How could I be so blind?
00:38:57What suits you?
00:38:58Uh, the, um, guitar and, uh, CEO title.
00:39:03Why can't you just say you miss me?
00:39:06Casey, I, I, look, I just...
00:39:19I just...
00:39:20I still miss you.
00:39:31Shouldn't you be licking your fiancé's wounds?
00:39:34Knowing she just insulted the CEO of the most powerful music company has got to hurt.
00:39:40But I mean, you of all people should know.
00:39:42Please, you have to believe me, okay?
00:39:44If you just let me explain, I promise...
00:39:45Explain what, Dexter?
00:39:46Are you here why you want me back after finding out I'm your boss?
00:39:52Or leaving me for Echo?
00:39:56No, no, look, that, that's, that's not why I'm here.
00:39:58If you just let me tell you, I, I...
00:40:01I mean, come on, Casey.
00:40:02I mean, you gotta understand, I, you're the one who lied to me.
00:40:05I lied?
00:40:06Yeah.
00:40:06And what would you call getting engaged to Scarlet after promising to put a ring on my finger?
00:40:11I didn't want any of that to happen.
00:40:13You have to believe me, please.
00:40:15I was just trying to...
00:40:17Look, I...
00:40:18Just tell me one thing, okay?
00:40:20I guess, why, why are you here?
00:40:22Are you here just...
00:40:22Is this just some royal way to get revenge?
00:40:25Tank my career?
00:40:28Oh, tank your career.
00:40:30I made his career.
00:40:33I loved you, Dexter.
00:40:35You might have found out who my father is today, but you still have no idea who I am.
00:40:41Wait.
00:40:45This, this is why you proposed to Scarlet, isn't it?
00:40:49Why you left me for dead.
00:40:53Sucked up to my dad, threw me to the curb for the fame, the fortune, the fans.
00:41:01No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:41:02Actually, I think it's time to make my first decision as the new CEO.
00:41:08Can I get everyone's attention, please?
00:41:13I hope everyone is having fun.
00:41:16Reed Records will be ending its contract with Dexter Hayes and dropping him as an artist.
00:41:27Effective immediately.
00:41:28Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
00:41:34You know, I am so glad I never told you who I really was.
00:41:40Because if I didn't, I might not have ever found out that you don't really love me for me.
00:41:44Casey, none of that is true, okay?
00:41:46None of this.
00:41:46I don't care about that.
00:41:47I've always loved you.
00:41:49Don't bother arguing with her anymore, Dexter.
00:41:51She may be rich, but she's just an arrogant nepo baby with no real talent.
00:41:57Scarlet is Echo.
00:41:58She can produce songs.
00:42:00She can get you to the top of the charts with or without Reed Records.
00:42:04Dexter, you don't need her.
00:42:06She doesn't understand you like Scarlet does.
00:42:09Okay, mom, mom.
00:42:10Stop.
00:42:11You're my mom, not my manager, all right?
00:42:15I'm done talking about this.
00:42:36I've known you for years.
00:42:41I thought you were facing all of those years, broken in the blade.
00:42:58Fade up twine, lost in time, I'm still missing you.
00:43:26Fade up twine, lost in time, I'm still missing you.
00:43:40I thought I was clear our relationship is over, Mr. Hayes.
00:43:43You're no longer welcome at Reed Records.
00:43:45I just came to pick up my equipment.
00:43:49Casey's wrong about me.
00:43:50I never gave up on us.
00:43:52She's got another truth.
00:43:54I don't think there's anything left to talk about, Dex.
00:44:03Fine.
00:44:06Let's not talk.
00:44:15What's wrong?
00:44:17Your fiancé not keeping you satisfied?
00:44:21I've been doing too much thinking about my former assistant.
00:44:29Not anymore.
00:44:31I'm your former boss now.
00:44:33In fact, here are your termination letters.
00:44:40I don't give a fuck about the contract.
00:44:43I 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.
00:44:52What we had.
00:44:53I've been trying to, but being this close again, it feels impossible.
00:45:00You're a lot like an instrument.
00:45:03But you tremble every time we touch.
00:45:11I don't care about the fans.
00:45:13I don't give a shit about the tabloids.
00:45:14I don't care what the rec labels have to say.
00:45:16If you tell me that you want to be with me,
00:45:20we'll be together.
00:45:25We can tease each other, okay?
00:45:29Until you finally admit that you still love me.
00:45:58You're right.
00:45:59I am like an instrument.
00:46:00The way I let you play me.
00:46:02After what you did, why would I trust you ever again?
00:46:06Listen to me.
00:46:07I've been trying to tell you.
00:46:09I do not want to be with Scarlet.
00:46:11Hello?
00:46:12Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way.
00:46:16Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:46:16Hold on.
00:46:16Sasha Silver?
00:46:18I've been telling you for months.
00:46:19The guy's a douchebag.
00:46:22A douchebag with over a hundred million streams.
00:46:25I mean, we have a Dexter Hayes-sized hole to fill
00:46:28and 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.
00:46:34I don't think you, of all people,
00:46:36get to tell me what I need.
00:46:38Casey.
00:46:39Casey.
00:46:40Casey!
00:46:42Daisy has every right to be angry with me
00:46:45after what I did.
00:46:46I have to prove she can trust me again.
00:46:59Perfect timing.
00:47:01Make yourself comfortable.
00:47:02Thank you for meeting me on self-short notice.
00:47:04Sasha generally doesn't like women who speak too much.
00:47:08I've been an exception for you.
00:47:09Do you always refer to yourself in the third person?
00:47:13I don't know what that means.
00:47:16But you want to hear one of Sasha's demos?
00:47:18They're a big hit online.
00:47:20I'm very excited about a potential partnership.
00:47:22Well, hired to be blown away.
00:47:27Actually, I 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, you know?
00:47:33Of course.
00:47:37But you'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?
00:48:00I do love straight vodka.
00:48:08But you know what I actually love even more than that?
00:48:15What's that?
00:48:18Exposing asshole pervs.
00:48:20My hair!
00:48:21What the fuck?
00:48:22You really think you can drug me?
00:48:24And then what?
00:48:25Force me to sign you to read records?
00:48:28Now you know who you're dealing with.
00:48:31Not so fast.
00:48:33You thought you could just walk in here
00:48:34and demand a live performance
00:48:35from the Sasha Silver?
00:48:37Do I look like a little bitch to you?
00:48:40Absolutely.
00:48:40And a fraud.
00:48:44I'll be sure no label will ever sign you,
00:48:47no matter how talented you are.
00:48:50I want me to label to sign me.
00:48:52Not when I can read records for myself.
00:48:56Don't be shy, Casey.
00:48:58I'm just hoping you get ready.
00:48:59The paparazzi will be here any minute
00:49:01to see my new mistress.
00:49:02He'll plaster our photos
00:49:03all over the tabloids.
00:49:05Everyone will see what a slut you are.
00:49:07How you slept your way to the top.
00:49:10Your poor father.
00:49:12He's going to have no choice
00:49:13but to hand you and your company over to me.
00:49:16You're delusional.
00:49:18Stay away from me.
00:49:19Be honest.
00:49:20You don't tell Sasha.
00:49:21Hey!
00:49:23I'll get your fucking hands off.
00:49:26I'll break your fucking hands.
00:49:28Mr. Hayes.
00:49:30Are you okay?
00:49:31I'm fine.
00:49:36What the fuck, Hayes?
00:49:38I could sue you for that.
00:49:40I'd love to see you try, sweetheart.
00:49:42You're just a wash-up addict.
00:49:44And you do not have a leg to stand on.
00:49:46Okay?
00:49:51Okay, I'm sorry.
00:49:52Jesus.
00:49:53We could have produced
00:49:54a sick-ass record together.
00:49:56You kind of wanted to defend this
00:49:58used-up slut.
00:50:00I mean, what the fuck?
00:50:03Her name
00:50:04is Casey Reed.
00:50:06And she's the future
00:50:07of the industry
00:50:08that you want so badly
00:50:09fucking in!
00:50:11Your career is dead,
00:50:13Sasha.
00:50:14I'm not sure of that.
00:50:16Let's go.
00:50:24Let's go.
00:50:27Give me your hand.
00:50:35Casey, I've been telling you
00:50:37for months.
00:50:37Sasha Silver is little-
00:50:38My business
00:50:39is none of your concern.
00:50:41I didn't show up tonight.
00:50:43What the hell do you think
00:50:44would have happened?
00:50:45Do you have any idea
00:50:45what he could have done to you?
00:50:46He could have raped you.
00:50:47Yes!
00:50:47He could have done-
00:50:48Okay!
00:50:48I know!
00:50:50Newsflash!
00:50:51I'm not your assistant
00:50:53anymore.
00:50:54So, it's not your concern
00:50:55where I am
00:50:56or what I'm doing.
00:50:58Okay?
00:50:58So, stop
00:51:01following me.
00:51:05The car is still fucking moving.
00:51:09Stop following you
00:51:10the minute that you
00:51:11stop making stupid
00:51:13fucking decisions.
00:51:15And when I've made it
00:51:16for all the danger
00:51:17I put her in.
00:51:20You're way
00:51:21too interested
00:51:24in my personal life,
00:51:26Dex.
00:51:26Won't your fiance
00:51:27be jealous?
00:51:33I've been trying to tell you
00:51:34for weeks
00:51:35I did not
00:51:37want
00:51:37to marry
00:51:38Scarlet.
00:51:40You don't fucking
00:51:41listen.
00:51:42Now you're really
00:51:43starting to piss me off.
00:51:44isn't that the point?
00:51:48I don't know.
00:51:55Isn't that the point?
00:51:56So, what am I supposed to do?
00:51:59Pretend she doesn't exist
00:52:02and be the pop star's secret side piece again?
00:52:08I should push him away
00:52:10but I can't deny
00:52:11how much I miss his touch.
00:52:13You were never the side piece
00:52:16and you know it.
00:52:27Boss, I have news!
00:52:30Thank you for your help today, Dexter.
00:52:35Please, stop following me.
00:52:40Or else it's gonna get harder
00:52:41and harder to walk away.
00:52:52Great timing.
00:52:54As always.
00:52:55Why are you even here?
00:52:57Done what you asked.
00:52:58News of Sasha Silver's fraudulence
00:52:59and drug abuse
00:53:00have been leaked to the press.
00:53:02No label, studio,
00:53:03or brand will go anywhere near.
00:53:04His net worth plummeted
00:53:05to zero.
00:53:06Good.
00:53:07Buy all the rights
00:53:08to his music.
00:53:11I'm gonna give that
00:53:12to Casey as a gift.
00:53:18I heard what happened
00:53:19with Sasha.
00:53:20Now that was way too risky, Casey.
00:53:22Look, I'm far from
00:53:23Dexter's biggest fan
00:53:24but that could have
00:53:25gotten real ugly
00:53:26if he hadn't shown up.
00:53:27I could have handled Sasha.
00:53:29There was also a huge
00:53:30leak in the press.
00:53:31All of Sasha Silver's
00:53:33dirty laundry
00:53:33had out for everyone to see.
00:53:35He's been, uh,
00:53:36what do you kids call it?
00:53:37Cancelled.
00:53:37Who took him down?
00:53:40Dexter Hayes.
00:53:45He even bought the rights
00:53:47to Sasha's music.
00:53:48He can't sing anything
00:53:50anywhere
00:53:50or get sued to hell and back.
00:53:53Dex took down
00:53:54Sasha Silver?
00:53:55For me?
00:53:56Maybe.
00:53:57He's not as bad
00:53:58as I thought.
00:53:59Or maybe he should stop
00:54:01interfering himself
00:54:01with my life.
00:54:07The world famous
00:54:08music producer Echo
00:54:09is set to finally
00:54:10reveal their identity
00:54:11at the legendary
00:54:12Universal Music Awards
00:54:13tomorrow night.
00:54:16Scarlet's getting desperate.
00:54:17She's trying to convince
00:54:18the world she's Echo
00:54:19before it can expose her lies.
00:54:21She can't keep up
00:54:22the act forever.
00:54:23Sooner or later
00:54:24Dexter will realize
00:54:25she can't even hold a tune.
00:54:26Much less produce
00:54:28a hit track.
00:54:29Scarlet is nothing
00:54:30if she's not Echo.
00:54:31She knows Dexter
00:54:32wouldn't look at her twice
00:54:33let alone marry her
00:54:35if she wasn't
00:54:36pretending to be
00:54:37a genius producer.
00:54:38I don't know how
00:54:38she thinks she's
00:54:39going to get away with it.
00:54:42I think it's time
00:54:43the world finds out
00:54:44who the real Echo is.
00:54:49You want to go
00:54:50to the UMAs
00:54:51as Echo?
00:54:52They've invited me
00:54:53every year
00:54:54and I've always refused.
00:54:55I've let this scam
00:54:56go on long enough.
00:54:58It's time the world
00:54:59finds out the truth
00:55:00about Scarlet Heart.
00:55:01The world
00:55:01or Dexter.
00:55:06This isn't about him.
00:55:09He made his bed
00:55:10when he proposed
00:55:11to Scarlet.
00:55:12Well my daughter
00:55:13deserves all the
00:55:13recognition of the world.
00:55:16But if you're
00:55:16going to go with Echo
00:55:17oh you're going to
00:55:18do it right.
00:55:20With the best
00:55:20equipment money can buy.
00:55:22Huh?
00:55:25I want people to see
00:55:26my princess
00:55:27for the queen
00:55:27that she is.
00:55:32You're the best dad.
00:55:46Mrs. Hayes!
00:55:47It's so good
00:55:49to see you again.
00:55:51How's Dexter?
00:55:53Engaged.
00:55:54Yes.
00:55:55My future daughter-in-law
00:55:57is performing
00:55:57at the Universal Music
00:55:59Awards tomorrow
00:56:00and I'd like to gift her
00:56:01something to mark the occasion.
00:56:03So none of these
00:56:04mass produced guitars.
00:56:06She's a musical genius.
00:56:08We need something
00:56:09one of a kind
00:56:10just like her.
00:56:11Of course.
00:56:12I have the perfect gift
00:56:13for her.

00:56:50of a right
00:56:50to be here

00:57:40a million dollar
00:57:41guitar!

00:57:52about an offer.

00:57:55Of course,

00:57:56Okay.
00:57:59Just kidding.

00:58:11Scarlett,
00:58:12ignore this
00:58:13wannabe musician.
00:58:15We'll find
00:58:16a better option.
00:58:18Mmm.
00:58:22Like this one.
00:58:24Beyonce
00:58:24used this
00:58:25on her last album.
00:58:27This instrument
00:58:28is worthy
00:58:29of Echo,
00:58:30the genius
00:58:31producer.
00:58:32Hey, hey, hey,
00:58:33hey, hey,
00:58:34hey, actually,
00:58:34actually,
00:58:36this guitar
00:58:36is no longer
00:58:37available.
00:58:38In fact,
00:58:39my entire
00:58:39collection
00:58:40is on hold
00:58:41for the new
00:58:41owner.
00:58:43I'm gonna just...
00:58:46My apologies,
00:58:47my apologies,
00:58:47apologies.
00:58:48No, no, no, no,
00:58:49no, no, no,
00:58:49we saw it first.
00:58:51Look, look,
00:58:52we just want
00:58:53the one guitar.
00:58:54I'm sure we can
00:58:54come to a generous
00:58:55agreement.
00:58:56You could pay
00:58:57all you want
00:58:57for the guitar,
00:58:58but it's not
00:58:59gonna stop Scarlett
00:59:00from choking
00:59:01on the stage.
00:59:05How dare you,
00:59:07you little bitch!
00:59:14That's enough.
00:59:17Hi, Dexy.
00:59:21Are you okay?
00:59:23Dexter,
00:59:23she just insulted
00:59:25your Beyoncé.
00:59:27You need to do
00:59:28something.
00:59:28Ma,
00:59:29do you really
00:59:30want to have
00:59:30a conversation
00:59:31right here and
00:59:32now about the
00:59:32current status
00:59:32of my engagement?
00:59:35Scarlett's talent
00:59:36as a producer
00:59:36is the reason
00:59:37you're as famous
00:59:38as you are,
00:59:39Dexter.
00:59:40The least you
00:59:41could do
00:59:42is show her
00:59:42a little respect.
00:59:45You know,
00:59:46actually,
00:59:46I'm sorry,
00:59:47you're right.
00:59:48I should
00:59:49show respect
00:59:50to the one
00:59:51person who's
00:59:52always been there
00:59:52for me.
00:59:55please ring up
00:59:55the guitar
00:59:56for Miss Hunt.
00:59:57I knew you
00:59:58would support me.
00:59:59Mr. Hayes,
01:00:00it's not for sale.
01:00:02You know,
01:00:02why don't you
01:00:02ask the new
01:00:03owner how much
01:00:04it costs
01:00:05and I'll pay it
01:00:06whatever it is
01:00:06right here and
01:00:07now.

01:00:10owner of the store,
01:00:11how much would
01:00:12you like to

01:00:14Wait,

01:00:18I'm sorry,
01:00:19I'm the new
01:00:20owner?

01:00:23birthday gift
01:00:24for my
01:00:24former assistant.

01:00:26for me?
01:00:28You really
01:00:29think I need

01:00:31Well,
01:00:32as CEO of
01:00:32Reed Records,
01:00:33you probably
01:00:33don't at all.
01:00:34But from

01:00:35cares about you
01:00:36a lot,
01:00:36why the hell
01:00:37not?
01:00:39Dexter,

01:00:43musician
01:00:44and you
01:00:45gave her
01:00:45the entire

01:00:47going to
01:00:48make us
01:00:49pay her
01:00:50for a
01:00:50guitar?
01:00:51Oh,

01:00:53Scarlett
01:00:53could have it
01:00:53for free

01:00:55she shows us
01:00:55the big hit
01:00:56that she's

01:03:36Of course
01:03:37she did.
01:03:37Her daddy
01:03:38probably got
01:03:38her a ticket
01:03:39after she
01:03:39cried about
01:03:40being left
01:03:40out.
01:03:41Dexter,
01:03:42Scarlet.
01:03:43You know,
01:03:43I'm actually
01:03:44surprised you
01:03:44showed up.
01:03:45I thought it
01:03:46would be too
01:03:46painful for you
01:03:47to witness
01:03:47people with
01:03:48actual talent
01:03:49perform when
01:03:50you yourself
01:03:51have none.
01:03:52Mm.
01:03:53I'm getting
01:03:54a lecture
01:03:55about talent
01:03:56from you.
01:03:57Oh,
01:03:58guess we'll see
01:03:58who's real
01:03:59and who's
01:03:59fake tonight.
01:04:00Wreck-a-like,
01:04:02Scarlet.
01:04:03Or should I
01:04:04say,
01:04:04Echo.
01:04:06Don't choke.
01:04:08Hope you
01:04:09don't choke.
01:04:31The playback's
01:04:32down.
01:04:32The track's gone,
01:04:33completely white.
01:04:35You have another
01:04:36version of the track,
01:04:37right?
01:04:41I didn't even
01:04:42make that version.
01:04:43I had to pay
01:04:43Taylor Swift's
01:04:44producer to send
01:04:44me to the
01:04:45reject tracks.
01:04:46Go fix this.
01:04:47Now.
01:04:50This is bad.
01:04:51All right,
01:04:51everyone's just
01:04:52out there staring
01:04:53at us.
01:04:53We're gonna
01:04:54burn the broadcast
01:04:55and the label's
01:04:56gonna drop us.
01:04:56What are we
01:04:57gonna do?
01:04:59I have an idea.
01:05:02You're Echo,
01:05:03right?
01:05:13Yes,
01:05:14it's true.
01:05:16I'm Echo,
01:05:17the award-winning
01:05:18producer and
01:05:19Dexter Hayes'
01:05:20longtime mystery
01:05:21collaborator.
01:05:22Then prove it.
01:05:24Go ahead.
01:05:25Why don't you mix
01:05:26us a live track
01:05:27right here,
01:05:28right now?
01:05:28Come on.
01:05:29You're a genius
01:05:30producer, right?
01:05:31I mean,
01:05:32this is your chance
01:05:33to show off your
01:05:34talents.
01:05:34I mean,
01:05:34the whole world
01:05:35is watching.
01:05:37I don't know
01:05:38what any of
01:05:38these buttons
01:05:38even do.
01:05:39This bitch
01:05:40is trying to
01:05:41sabotage me.
01:05:42I must have
01:05:42another file I can
01:05:43play.
01:05:44I'll just make it
01:05:45look like I'm
01:05:45mixing in real time.
01:05:47Of course.
01:05:49Watch me work
01:05:50my magic.
01:06:08And that's how
01:06:09it's done.
01:06:10Show must go on.
01:06:12Nice try.
01:06:13Scarlet's proven
01:06:14herself enough.
01:06:15You can stop
01:06:16with the
01:06:16jealous witch hunt
01:06:17now.
01:06:19Okay,
01:06:19can you boost
01:06:19the treble
01:06:20on the EQ
01:06:21in the middle
01:06:21and can you
01:06:22pan from
01:06:22stage left to
01:06:23stage right
01:06:24real quick?
01:06:26Yeah.
01:06:34Damn,
01:06:34I guess you're
01:06:35going to have
01:06:35to do with
01:06:36the old-fashioned
01:06:36way.
01:06:37That means
01:06:37recording the
01:06:38instruments live,
01:06:39looping the-
01:06:40Don't listen to her!
01:06:41She doesn't know
01:06:42what it takes
01:06:42to make a track
01:06:43of my caliber.
01:06:44And this isn't
01:06:45the first time
01:06:46one of Dexter's
01:06:47tracks have been
01:06:47corrected.
01:06:48If I didn't know
01:06:49any better,
01:06:50I'd think you were
01:06:51trying to sabotage
01:06:52Scarlet,
01:06:53Scarlet,
01:06:53why would Casey
01:06:54do that?
01:06:55For real.
01:06:55Okay,
01:06:56you're Echo.
01:06:57Okay,
01:06:58so just fix the
01:06:59track.

01:07:14you are our
01:07:15only hope now.

01:07:17fix this.
01:07:18I could,

01:07:20than this shoddy
01:07:21Breed Records

01:07:24a genius,
01:07:25why don't you
01:07:25fix it?
01:07:26Oh,

01:07:44Record some
01:07:45MIDI instruments,
01:07:45lay them down,
01:07:46make a track.
01:07:47It's that simple.
01:07:47You know how
01:07:47to do this.
01:07:49You really think
01:07:50your fiancé is
01:07:51going to be able
01:07:52to fix this show?
01:07:53I mean,
01:07:53if she goes down,
01:07:54you go down
01:07:55with her.
01:07:57Casey shouldn't
01:07:58even be here.
01:07:59I can't let her
01:08:00expose me.
01:08:01Not when I'm
01:08:01so close to
01:08:02marrying Dexter
01:08:03and becoming
01:08:03a pop legend.
01:08:05Boop!
01:08:26Is this part of her
01:08:27process?
01:08:28It would take a
01:08:29true genius to make
01:08:29that racket sound
01:08:31like music.
01:08:31music?
01:08:51Oh my god,
01:08:53is Scarlet Heart
01:08:54tone deaf?
01:08:56Come on, Echo.
01:08:57Show them your talent.
01:08:58Keep going.
01:08:59Get off the stage!
01:09:01You're ruining
01:09:01the UMAs!
01:09:05Alright, look.
01:09:08It's done.
01:09:09You're really
01:09:10going to give up
01:09:10that easily, Dex?
01:09:12You're going to
01:09:13throw it all away
01:09:14because of Scarlet?
01:09:15Yeah, I am.
01:09:16That whole career
01:09:17that I fought for
01:09:18for however
01:09:19how many years?
01:09:20Yeah.
01:09:23Because you know
01:09:24what?
01:09:25Someone that I was
01:09:26close to once
01:09:27told me
01:09:28that there's a lot
01:09:29more to life
01:09:30than just your career.
01:09:31And who knows,
01:09:32maybe I can get
01:09:33a cool new gig
01:09:34as a personal
01:09:35assistant for the
01:09:35new CEO of
01:09:36Read Records.
01:09:39Dexter,
01:09:40stop it with
01:09:41those awful jokes!
01:09:42Your entire
01:09:43life's work
01:09:44is on the line!
01:09:45Mom,
01:09:47you heard the
01:09:47track, okay?
01:09:48There's no saving
01:09:48this song.
01:09:49Now it's over.
01:09:51It's over.
01:10:05Well,
01:10:06I guess it's time
01:10:07for the next act
01:10:08of this show.
01:10:10No!
01:10:11No!
01:10:12There's no...
01:10:12There's no other...
01:10:14It's time to let
01:10:15a real musician
01:10:16take the stage.
01:10:24What the hell
01:10:25do you think
01:10:25you're doing?
01:10:26Mom, mom, stop!
01:10:29You heard her, Scarlett?
01:10:31I mean,
01:10:32you can stay
01:10:33unless you want
01:10:34to go down
01:10:34as the worst
01:10:35performer in
01:10:35UMA history.
01:10:37If I couldn't
01:10:37mix a whole live
01:10:38track, what makes
01:10:39you think you could?
01:10:40For one,
01:10:41I know what I'm doing.
01:10:43And if you don't?
01:10:45Will you step
01:10:46down as Reed Records
01:10:47CEO if you fail?
01:10:49Happily.
01:10:50Hmm.
01:10:53Everyone,
01:10:54we're about to watch
01:10:55the Reed Records
01:10:56CEO dig her own grave.
01:10:58It seems like
01:10:58Echo is having
01:10:59technical difficulties
01:11:01with her track.
01:11:02Since we're live,
01:11:03let's make something
01:11:04new.
01:11:05Dexter,
01:11:05sing me the first
01:11:06line of your song,
01:11:07just your voice.
01:11:09Right now.
01:11:10Right now?
01:11:17I am not
01:11:19the kind
01:11:20for a show.
01:11:24This is not
01:11:26a one-time thing.
01:11:28Lights are low,
01:11:30but I still will.
01:11:32This moment's
01:11:34got a sting.
01:11:37Good.
01:11:41Now let's
01:11:41make a hit.
01:11:49Let's fucking
01:11:50go!
01:11:51Ha ha ha!
01:12:06Wait,
01:12:06what is she doing?
01:12:09I mean,
01:12:10you produced this,
01:12:11right?
01:12:11So do you want
01:12:11to go ahead
01:12:12and take over?
01:12:13I can't.
01:12:14I don't have
01:12:14but.
01:12:15You don't need
01:12:16anything except
01:12:17for a band
01:12:18and raw talent.
01:12:19I mean,
01:12:19you are a musician,
01:12:20right?
01:12:25Since when
01:12:25is Casey Reed
01:12:26a musical genius?
01:12:27That sound,
01:12:28it's familiar.
01:12:30not the cut
01:12:32for sure.
01:12:35This is not
01:12:36a one-time thing.
01:12:38Stop!
01:12:39Stop it!
01:12:50Casey.
01:12:53You're Echo.
01:12:54Does this mean
01:12:55Casey Reed
01:12:56is Echo?
01:12:59This is my song!
01:13:00She just ripped
01:13:01it off!
01:13:02Who's stealing
01:13:02now,
01:13:03Scarlet?
01:13:04Don't listen
01:13:05to her!
01:13:06I'm Echo!
01:13:10I didn't even
01:13:11make that version.
01:13:12I had to pay
01:13:12Taylor Swift's
01:13:13producer to send
01:13:13me one of her
01:13:14reject tracks.
01:13:15Go fix this.
01:13:19Now everyone
01:13:20knows the truth.
01:13:25She's the one
01:13:26that saved the song.
01:13:27No,
01:13:27that was me!
01:13:29I already did
01:13:29all the work,
01:13:30she's just
01:13:30taking the credit!
01:13:32I had to mix
01:13:33the track live,
01:13:34Dexter,
01:13:35so that makes it
01:13:35my intellectual property.
01:13:37You're welcome
01:13:38to put it on
01:13:39your next album,
01:13:39but you're gonna
01:13:40have to pay me for it.
01:13:41Where do I sign?
01:13:43I don't think
01:13:43you could afford
01:13:44my fee.
01:13:46I think you might
01:13:46just be surprised.
01:13:49200 million.
01:13:51200 million?
01:13:51for one song?
01:13:53It's more than
01:13:54our entire album deal.
01:13:56Are you insane?
01:13:57And I want
01:13:58my name to be credited.
01:14:01Bad deal,
01:14:02Miss Reed.
01:14:04And one last thing.
01:14:05I want a public
01:14:07apology from
01:14:08Scarlet Heart
01:14:09and Amelia Hayes.
01:14:11That's ridiculous!
01:14:12Why should we
01:14:13apologize to you?
01:14:14I mean,
01:14:15you don't have to.
01:14:15I could just
01:14:16go ahead and leave
01:14:16and then Scarlet
01:14:17could finish the album
01:14:18and Dexter's career
01:14:20could crash and burn,
01:14:21so what will it be?
01:14:28The clock is ticking.
01:14:31I was wrong about you.
01:14:32You saved Dexter's song.
01:14:36I'm sorry.
01:14:40And you?
01:14:41Do it.
01:14:43Apologize to her.
01:14:44That bitch!
01:14:44Why do I have to
01:14:46apologize to her?
01:14:47She ruined everything.
01:14:49Come on,
01:14:49let's hear it.
01:14:50Tell the world the truth.
01:14:51Scarlet.
01:14:52Fine!
01:14:53I'm not Echo,
01:14:55I pretended,
01:14:56and I never wrote
01:14:56or produced
01:14:57any of Dexter's songs.
01:14:58They are happy?
01:15:01They are happy?
01:15:05Wait,
01:15:06that's not
01:15:06what I really meant.
01:15:08Dexter,
01:15:09she manipulated me.
01:15:11You're still my fiancé?
01:15:12You believe-
01:15:12Scarlet,
01:15:13you are exactly
01:15:14what we all see.
01:15:15You fucking bought
01:15:16and you're a damn liar.
01:15:19Casey
01:15:19is the one
01:15:20who built my career.
01:15:22Hell,
01:15:22she's the one
01:15:22who saved the damn song.
01:15:24She's the only one
01:15:26who ever cared about me
01:15:27or loved me.
01:15:30Our engagement
01:15:31is off
01:15:31and so is the record.
01:15:55Please don't cancel the album.
01:15:57The album
01:15:58terminated your contract
01:16:00and blacklisting you
01:16:01from the industry.
01:16:02Two years old.
01:16:08Got yourself
01:16:09the DL case.
01:16:18Hit it.
01:16:24If we're not here for long
01:16:29tell me where
01:16:32would we belong
01:16:34who are you?
01:16:36My back is passed
01:16:38against the wall.
01:16:41I need you to know
01:16:43I'm not afraid to fall.
01:16:47Your name's on fire
01:16:49in my veins.
01:16:52It's burning for my chains.
01:16:57Who are you
01:16:59to tell me why?
01:17:03Who am I
01:17:05to live a lie?
01:17:08This mirror shows
01:17:10a thousand places
01:17:11but you're not
01:17:13open,
01:17:14can't buy.

01:18:09Miss Reed, the whole world wants to know,
01:18:12are you the award-winning genius music producer Echo?
01:18:15I think everyone saw the broadcast and my work speaks for itself.
01:18:20You are a revolution in the music industry and we can't wait to see what you do next Echo.
01:18:28You arrogant fucking whore! You ruined everything!
01:18:35Dexter was gonna be mine! I was gonna be the biggest pop star in the world!
01:18:49But you have to get in my way. That won't happen again.
01:18:55Kensei! Dex, no!
01:19:06No! No!
01:19:07No! No!
01:19:09Dex! Dex, stay with me!
01:19:11Oh my god!
01:19:15Hey, hey, hey. You've been here all night.
01:19:21You still love him, don't you?
01:19:24Dexter saved my life, but as soon as I thank him, we can move on.
01:19:30You know, if you say so, but have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to
01:19:36save you?
01:19:36It doesn't matter now.
01:19:38Things will never return back to how they were before.
01:19:43Casey, Dexter was an absolute idiot for betraying you, okay?
01:19:47Listen, but without him, I would have lost my baby girl.
01:19:51And those two songs you two produced together, they made millions believe in love.
01:19:57Your love.
01:19:59Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it.
01:20:00I mean, a love like that burns bright, but it doesn't last forever.
01:20:07Clearly, Dexter never stopped caring about you. Hmm? Maybe your love story isn't over.
01:20:13The other Reed Records executives want Dexter to headline the big festival and sign him to the label again.
01:20:19You know, if our CEO approves.
01:20:27Dexter is sleeping, but you can see him now.
01:20:34Don't be afraid to tell him how you feel, Princess.
01:20:54It was a close call.
01:20:56One centimeter to the right.
01:20:58He could have punctured his lung.
01:21:00If Dex couldn't sing anymore, his life might as well be over.
01:21:04Oh, hopefully, he'll recover.
01:21:06But for now, all he need is rest.
01:21:09That's it, okay?
01:21:17What is wrong with you, Dexter?
01:21:21How could you do something so stupid?
01:21:25If you don't make it through this, I will never forgive you.
01:21:30Never.
01:21:34Bye.
01:21:40My God, you're beautiful.
01:21:45Why are you still mad at me?
01:21:48I think I have every right to be.
01:21:54Casey, I...
01:21:59I miss you.
01:22:01I miss him, too.
01:22:02But everything we've put each other through, can we really be together again?
01:22:08You saved my life, and...
01:22:13I will be forever grateful.
01:22:18And in return, I'll give you your song for free.
01:22:21And we can go our separate ways.
01:22:23We can end on a high note.
01:22:24No, no, no, no.
01:22:27Is that really what you want?
01:22:30To walk away from all this forever?
01:22:39Look, there's something I have to show you.
01:22:41There's something I've been trying to show you.
01:22:55That horrible night when I chose Scarlet, I only did it because I had to.
01:23:02They forced you to choose her.
01:23:04I was trying to save your life, okay?
01:23:07I would never, ever, ever do that to you.
01:23:10I'd choose you a million times over.
01:23:12And I knew that I'd break your heart, and I knew that I would lose you, and I...
01:23:18But I'd rather risk that than losing your life forever.
01:23:25When I said I loved you, Dexter, I meant it.
01:23:30I don't want to be with anyone else.
01:23:32Me neither.
01:23:37You're my little muse.
01:23:41My pop star.
01:23:47Which reminds me.
01:23:51Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline the Wild Life Festival.
01:23:57The Wild Life Festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:02You saved their CEO. You deserve it.
01:24:04You're the reason I sing.
01:24:06You're the reason I live.
01:24:08I don't want to song write or do any of this if I don't have you.
01:24:13You're my world, Casey.
01:24:16I know I've written a lot of songs, okay?
01:24:18I know.
01:24:20But none of them compare to how I feel.
01:24:23I don't want to be with you for just who you are, or what you have, or any of that
01:24:27stuff.
01:24:28I don't either want to sing or have this career.
01:24:29I'd give it up in a second if it meant just being with you.
01:24:33That's all I need.
01:24:36You do it together.
01:24:41I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes.
01:24:44Okay.
01:24:48I want us to do this together.
01:24:52I love you.
01:24:53Dexter, I love you too.
01:25:09This is the biggest cry I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:13Then we better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:15Dexter.
01:25:17Yes man.
01:25:27I wrote this song with Casey Reed who is my echo, but more importantly she is undoubtedly the love of
01:25:36my life.
01:25:39So I hope you enjoy
01:26:07Every time I remember to smile
01:26:10Imagine a world where together
01:26:25This goes on
01:26:29There's stuff in the stockings
01:26:32But I am still walking along
01:26:35To lose
01:26:38Was the fool who I hated
01:26:41Now I'm recreating
01:26:43Every time I look at the moonfall
01:26:48I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:26:54Soon you'll see
01:26:57That it's time for you and me
01:27:01Just the best so far
01:27:06With just a little
01:27:08And every time I look in your eyes
01:27:17I forget where I am
01:27:19Just a little
01:27:20Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:27:25My dream of a night that's lost forever
01:27:29Yeah, yeah
01:27:36I'm drinking and talking
01:27:38But I will be watching
01:27:40Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
01:27:44Soon you'll hear me
01:27:44The mirror in heaven
01:27:47My heart is still feeling
01:27:50Every time I remember to smile, I imagine the world, we're together
01:28:08I know it feels like
01:28:11I know it feels like
01:28:15I know it feels like
01:28:19Hold on, you got this
01:28:22All that you wanted
01:28:24Is on the other side
01:28:26And you're gonna find it
01:28:30It's not fair
