00:00:16My name is Casey Reed.
00:00:19No one knows I'm the heiress of Reed Records, the billion-dollar music empire, or that I'm
00:00:24Echo, the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys.
00:00:27I chose to stay invisible because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes,
00:00:35the rockstar I secretly built from the ground up.
00:00:38I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter.
00:00:42We share the same music, but never the same spotlight.
00:00:47Will you spit in my mouth?
00:00:59Dex, we're backstage, someone might see us.
00:01:05I am so done hiding you.
00:01:08I have no idea what you do to me, Casey, how you make me feel.
00:01:11You are my favorite song.
00:01:20You lose control.
00:01:22My little moon.
00:01:25I want you, Dex.
00:01:29I need you.
00:01:33Good.
00:01:35And because you're already mine, I'm going to call you on that stage tonight.
00:01:42I'm going to sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:01:44And I'm going to kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:47I'm going to claim every inch of you, note by note, in front of the whole world.
00:02:08Hey, Case, um, what's with all the secret phone calls?
00:02:12Just, what are you hiding?
00:02:15Nothing, it's just work stuff.
00:02:18Okay.
00:02:20It's time I come clean, too.
00:02:22Once he finishes this concert, the echo mask will come off.
00:02:26And I can finally be the real me.
00:02:29His echo and his Casey.
00:02:34You are going to be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:49I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:00He's so excited.
00:03:02You are going to be my lucky…
00:03:02love you.
00:03:04He's so excited.
00:03:06Who is your Икjied?
00:03:09He's so excited.
00:03:10He's so excited.
00:03:10I want you to be the only one.
00:03:11He wants you to be the only one.
00:03:14I want you.
00:03:15And he wants you.
00:03:16And he wants you to be the only two.
00:03:17I want you.
00:03:18You don't want you to be the only one.
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 grumpy assistant.
00:03:49A lot of buzz 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.
00:04:04She's always throwing herself at my boyfriend.
00:04:07Maybe once he puts a ring on it tonight, she'll finally take the hint.
00:04:12I've got a really special one for you all tonight. Hope you enjoy.
00:04:18Dexter Hayes!
00:04:25Shit! The backing mix is corrupted!
00:04:28I can't let Dex's show get ruined.
00:04:30Echo can fix this.
00:04:34Are you here?
00:04:36I need your help.
00:04:38What the hell is she up to?
00:04:43Well, I guess the system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes, so I'll be right back.
00:04:53There, your gear from the studio. Or 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.
00:05:46Is Casey Echo?
00:05:56Time to save Dex's concert.
00:05:58Play the song! Play the song!
00:06:02God, where's Casey? She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:04The show is a disaster. The fans are waiting. Can you please find her? I need her.
00:06:08No, Dexter.
00:06:11I'm the one you need.
00:06:12What?
00:06:21This is Echo's novel.
00:06:25Are you her? Are you her?
00:06:31Listen, can you please save this song?
00:06:34I already did.
00:06:38Wait.
00:06:40Dexter, there's one more thing I should probably show you.
00:06:46Casey has been hiding another man.
00:06:54All those secret phone calls, dodged questions.
00:06:57Casey was cheating on me this whole time?
00:07:01Dexter, 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?
00:07:18Uh, and we're back.
00:07:20Well, I wrote this song for the love of my life.
00:07:25At least I thought so.
00:07:35Get ready, Dex, and next to your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:07:44I'm...
00:07:45I'm...
00:07:47I'm...
00:07:48I'm a...
00:07:53I'm...
00:08:02Every time I look, I...
00:08:06Remember the time I saw you, I
00:08:09One thing to remember you by
00:08:11The time I looked into your eye
00:08:15The secret feeling again
00:08:17I know I was when I died
00:08:54I know I was when I died
00:09:33I know I was when I died
00:09:37I loved her and she betrayed me
00:09:50Oh my god, Dexie!
00:09:53Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:57Yes!
00:10:01Oh my god, Dexie!
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
00:10:18But she made my career and Casey betrayed me
00:10:25It was all a lie
00:10:28Alright, I can play along with his engagement
00:10:31And I can move on from the woman who broke my heart
00:10:42Hey, uh, Casey
00:10:54You promised me
00:10:58That you'd tell the world about us tonight
00:11:00But instead, you propose and put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:07Casey, you gave me no choice
00:11:10I gave you everything
00:11:14I loved you
00:11:15Do you love her?
00:11:17I owe her
00:11:19Okay?
00:11:20I owe her, alright?
00:11:21I don't...
00:11:22You owe her?
00:11:24Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plant
00:11:28What has she ever done for you?
00:11:30Scarlet produced my career
00:11:32She made me who I am today
00:11:34Okay?
00:11:35So, so, so that's why
00:11:36What are you talking about?
00:11:40Scarlet is Echo
00:11:47You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:52Well, I know she is
00:11:53You know what?
00:11:54I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done for me
00:11:58And I feel like this is a good start
00:12:03How 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?
00:12:14To be a music industry power couple?
00:12:18To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:21He could have had that with me
00:12:24This is all you ever really cared about
00:12:28Isn't it?
00:12:31Not loyalty
00:12:32Just
00:12:34Your music
00:12:36What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:41This is my notebook
00:12:43Full of songs that I wrote
00:12:46For Dexter's first single platinum album
00:12:48That's my notebook
00:12:50How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:52I'm a musical genius
00:12:54And you're just Dexter's little errand girl
00:12:58Give it back
00:12:59Dexter, she cut me
00:13:02See what?
00:13:03She's gotten into you
00:13:04I don't
00:13:04I don't know who you are anymore
00:13:06Dexter, baby
00:13:08I know all about girls like her
00:13:11They want fame and money without really ever having to work for it
00:13:15She's taking advantage of you
00:13:17She has been for years
00:13:19Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this
00:13:22Scarlet is not Echo
00:13:24Then tell me why I shouldn't
00:13:26Okay, well why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:31Go wait in the car
00:13:32Please
00:13:38Casey
00:13:43Look, I know that you've been hiding things
00:13:46So please just
00:13:47Just tell me the truth
00:13:48Okay, right now
00:13:50Or we'll lose us forever
00:13:58Please
00:13:59Please
00:14:07The truth doesn't matter anymore
00:14:09You don't trust me anyway
00:14:16We're over
00:14:19Dex
00:14:21Goodbye
00:14:23Forever
00:14:43The 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
00:15:02I made his career, but
00:15:05He doesn't want me
00:15:06He never did
00:15:08What happened, princess?
00:15:10Scarlet Hart
00:15:11She stole him and now she's trying to steal my identity
00:15:15I'll come get you
00:15:22Who are you?
00:15:32It looks like Dexter's whore is awake.
00:15:35Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man.
00:15:40Who are you?
00:15:41Let me go!
00:15:43Don't worry Scarlet, we won't hurt you.
00:15:46We're your friends too.
00:15:48We've only shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Heart.
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.
00:16:02I wasn't stealing him, we were in love.
00:16:06Or I thought we were.
00:16:09We'll see about that, won't we?
00:16:11The only way you'll live tonight is if Dexter chooses to save you.
00:16:21Where the hell is everybody?
00:16:26Dressing room, come alone.
00:16:29Choose to save Scarlet Heart and we'll spare them.
00:16:32Choose your little assistant and they both die.
00:16:37You've reached Casey. I can't come to the phone right now.
00:16:41Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:44Casey?
00:16:46So she never left the concert.
00:16:47Get back to the concert hall now.
00:16:50Dexter is coming.
00:16:52We'll see who his true love is.
00:16:55You psychos!
00:16:57Are you hoping that he chooses you over his fiance?
00:17:02Obviously not.
00:17:04She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry.
00:17:08You fucked him too?
00:17:10God.
00:17:11Our precious Dexter.
00:17:13Soiled by a dirty star fucker.
00:17:16Girls like you don't deserve him.
00:17:19You don't deserve to live.
00:17:21No one knows what the real Echo looks like.
00:17:23So, if Casey dies, then the truth dies with her.
00:17:28That's not true.
00:17:30First you steal my identity, now you're trying to get me murdered?
00:17:34You're psychotic.
00:17:35Oh, don't worry Casey.
00:17:37If you die today, Dex and I will make a song about you and maybe it'll even be the lead
00:17:41single on our new album.
00:17:44You're crazier than they are.
00:17:46Who are you calling crazy?

00:29:31is
00:29:31this mysterious heiress she is Ed Reed's daughter I'll bet she'll be making a very splashy entrance whoever

00:29:43she is now
00:29:54no fucking what are you
00:30:19Casey
00:30:24Casey?
00:30:26Hey, Dex. Long time no see.
00:30:31Dex has already moved on with Scarlet.
00:30:34I should be happy walking away from him.
00:30:37So, why does my heart still ache?
00:30:56Ignore her.
00:30:57But instead, focus on kissing up to Ed Reed so he introduces us to the new CEO.
00:31:02You should listen to her, Dexter.
00:31:04All we need to do is get on their good side, and our album will go straight to number one.
00:31:09She's right. I have to impress Ed Reed and this new CEO if I want our album to be a
00:31:15hit.
00:31:32Scarlet, what a terrible surprise.
00:31:34I should have known you'd sneak in here hunting for your next sugar daddy,
00:31:38but this party is for the elite of the music industry only.
00:31:41I suggest you wait on the street corner with the other hookers.
00:31:44But the party's just getting started. I can't miss the big announcement.
00:31:51Why? 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.
00:32:02And don't distract Dexter tonight. Leave, or I will have security escort you out.
00:32:06I'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 Hart. 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.
00:32:48Hmm. They got that right. Hmm. Is that so?
00:32:54Tell me something, Scarlet. Is it really me who's putting on an actor?
00:33:02Is it you?
00:33:05How dare you?
00:33:08Careful.
00:33:09The new CEO might be watching.
00:33:12Yeah.
00:33:13You think you're hot shit just because you're the real Echo.
00:33:16You may have the talent, but you have no money and no connections besides the ones you make in pay
00:33:21-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
00:33:32hard, your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public.
00:33:37Mr. Reid.
00:33:38Uh, hi. Uh, Dexter Hayes.
00:33:39Thank you so much for the invite. Um, you've always been a true hero of mine.
00:33:45Well, I would really love to put that, um, well, that incident with my assistant behind us.
00:33:52Oh, Dexter Hayes, of course I can.
00:33:55Got you.
00:33:56Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face when he realizes the assistant he rejected is my
00:34:01daughter.
00:34:02Yeah, the heiress to the Reid record's 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.
00:34:12I really think that between my lyrics and, well, her producing and your musical genius over the last many decades,
00:34:19I think we could really make something special.
00:34:21Yeah.
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.
00:34:36Why don't you put in a good word yourself?
00:34:38The new CEO is already here.
00:34:51Casey.
00:34:53Casey.
00:34:54Casey.
00:34:55Casey.
00:34:56Casey.
00:34:58Uh, 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.
00:35:06I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone, for wanting to hear his voice again, but after what
00:35:13he did to me, I couldn't give him the satisfaction.
00:35:17Oh, you've been calling me for the last few days. What, you missed me already?
00:35:22Did Ed Reed bring Casey as his date?
00:35:25This event is invite only.
00:35:31Yeah. Dang, I guess I left my invite at home, but I think I'm gonna stay.
00:35:36You know, Scarlet, on the other hand, though, has been throwing around nothing but vile slander and empty accusations all
00:35:43night.
00:35:43If anyone needs to go, it should be her. Unless you want me to expose your lies to Dexter right
00:35:49here, right now.
00:35:50Yeah, right. The only ones who can remove me are Mr. Reed himself or the new CEO.
00:35:56You have no power here.
00:35:58Okay, guys, I, Ed Reed and this new CEO are about to announce our new album. Can we have this
00:36:05conversation later?
00:36:06Aw, Dex. You forgot to say please.
00:36:13Wait, Casey, what, what?
00:36:19Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to announce tonight's special guest.
00:36:28Read Records is the number one largest music label in the world.
00:36:34But tonight, I want to introduce you to someone who's more precious to me than any company.
00:36:39Someone who grew up listening to me play piano, who has written hundreds of songs and never put her name
00:36:45on 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.
00:36:58Mr. Reed is looking right at us. He's going to call us on stage.
00:37:02All right, this is it. He's going to announce that he signed us to Reed Records.
00:37:06I want to introduce the heir to my billion dollar music empire and the new CEO of Reed Records.
00:37:14My princess, my princess, and the light of my life.
00:37:19My daughter, Casey Reed.
00:37:25What?
00:37:31No.
00:37:32No.
00:37:39Casey.
00:37:56That's the Reed heiress?
00:37:58Holy shit.
00:37:59She's not a sugar baby.
00:38:00She's the daughter of billionaire music royalty.
00:38:04Scarlet Heart is delusional.
00:38:06Insulting the new CEO of Reed Records to her face?
00:38:09She just committed career suicide.
00:38:12Mr. Reed, your gift for the lady of the hour.
00:38:16That's millions of dollars of gold.
00:38:19Dad, this is too much.
00:38:21Throw something from your old man.
00:38:23And now Dexter will see that you're worth more than your weight in gold.
00:38:26This cannot be happening.
00:38:28She's a nobody.
00:38:32I knew Casey was keeping secrets from me, but I didn't know she was hiding who she was.
00:38:37Ed Reed was never her sugar daddy.
00:38:39He was her father.
00:38:41This whole time she was with me for love, not fame.
00:38:44She tried to tell me the truth and instead of trusting her, I left her for another woman.
00:38:49How could I be so blind?
00:38:58What suits you?
00:39:00Uh, the, um, guitar and, uh, CEO title.
00:39:04Why can't you just say you miss me?
00:39:07Casey, I, I, look, I just...
00:39:09I've gone before years.
00:39:14I thought you'd stay the same.
00:39:18All of those years you're here.
00:39:20I just...
00:39:22I still miss you.
00:39:32Shouldn't you be licking your fiancee's wounds?
00:39:36Knowing she just insulted the CEO of the most powerful music company has got to hurt.
00:39:41But I mean, you of all people should know.
00:39:43Please, you have to believe me, okay?
00:39:45If you just let me explain, I promise...
00:39:47Explain what, Dexter?
00:39:48Why you want me back?
00:39:49After finding out I'm your boss?
00:39:53You're leaving me for Echo?
00:39:57No, no, look, that, that's, that's not why I'm here.
00:40:00If you just let me tell you, I, I...
00:40:03I mean, come on, Casey, I mean, you gotta understand, I...
00:40:06You're the one who lied to me.
00:40:07I lied?
00:40:08Yeah.
00:40:09And what would you call getting engaged to Scarlet after promising to put a ring on my finger?
00:40:13I didn't want any of that to happen!
00:40:15You have to believe me, please!
00:40:17I was just trying to...
00:40:19Look, I...
00:40:21Just tell me one thing, okay?
00:40:22I guess...
00:40:23Why are you here?
00:40:24Are you here just...
00:40:24Is this just some royal way to get revenge?
00:40:27Tank my career?
00:40:30Oh, tank your career.
00:40:32I made his career.
00:40:35I...
00:40:36Loved you.
00:40:37Dexter, you might have found out who my father is today, but you still have no idea who I am.
00:40:43Wait.
00:40:47This...
00:40:48This is why you proposed to Scarlet, isn't it?
00:40:51Why...
00:40:52Why...
00:40:52You left...
00:40:53Me...
00:40:54For dead.
00:40:55Sucked up to my dad.
00:40:58Threw me to the curb...
00:41:00For the fame.
00:41:01The fortune.
00:41:02The fans.
00:41:03No, no.
00:41:04Please...
00:41:04No, no, no.
00:41:05Actually, I think...
00:41:06It's time to make my first decision as the new CEO.
00:41:10Can I get everyone's attention, please?
00:41:15I hope everyone is having fun.
00:41:18Reed Records will be ending its contract with Dexter Hayes and dropping him as an artist.
00:41:29Effective immediately.
00:41:31Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!
00:41:37You know, I am so glad I never told you who I really was.
00:41:42Because if I didn't, I might not have ever found out that you don't really love me for me.
00:41:46Casey.
00:41:47None of that is true, okay?
00:41:48None of this.
00:41:49I don't care about that.
00:41:50I've always loved you.
00:41:51Don't bother arguing with her anymore, Dexter.
00:41:54She may be rich, but she's just an arrogant nepo baby with no real talent.
00:41:59Scarlet is Echo.
00:42:00She can produce songs.
00:42:03Wait, wait, Casey!
00:42:03She can get you to the top of the charts with or without Reed Records.
00:42:07Dexter, you don't need her.
00:42:08She doesn't understand you like Scarlet does.
00:42:11Okay, mom, mom.
00:42:13Stop.
00:42:14You're my mom, not my manager, alright?
00:42:17I'm done talking about this.
00:42:38I've known you for years.
00:42:44I thought you'd say the same.
00:42:48All of those years.
00:42:53You and me, please.
00:43:43I thought I was clear our relationship is over, Mr. Hayes.
00:43:46You're no longer welcome at Reed Records.
00:43:48I just came to pick up my equipment.
00:43:52Casey's wrong about me.
00:43:53I never gave up on us.
00:43:55She's got another truth.
00:43:57I don't think there's anything left to talk about, Dex.
00:44:07Fine.
00:44:09Let's not talk.
00:44:14What's wrong?
00:44:16Your fiancé not keeping you satisfied.
00:44:20I've been doing too much thinking about my former assistant.
00:44:29Not anymore.
00:44:30I'm your former boss now.
00:44:33In fact, here are your termination letters.
00:44:39I don't give a fuck about the contract.
00:44:42I don't give a shit about my career.
00:44:44I just want you.
00:44:45And I know that you want me too.
00:44:48And I act like you've forgotten what 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.
00:45:02But you tremble every time we touch.
00:45:10I don't care about the fans.
00:45:12I 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 all day.
00:45:29Until you finally admit
00:45:30that you still love me.
00:45:57You're right.
00:45:58I 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?
00:46:05Listen to me.
00:46:07I've been trying to tell you I do not want to be with Scarlet.
00:46:11Hello?
00:46:12Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way.
00:46:15Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:46:16Hold on.
00:46:16Sasha Silver?
00:46:17I've been telling you for months.
00:46:19The guy's a douchebag.
00:46:21A douchebag with over a hundred million streams.
00:46:25I mean, we have a Dexter Hayes-sized hold-a-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.
00:46:32He'll hurt you.
00:46:33No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:46:33I don't think you, of all people, get to tell me what I need.
00:46:38Casey.
00:46:39Casey.
00:46:40Casey!
00:46:42Deasy has every right to be angry with me after 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 such short notice.
00:47:04Sasha generally doesn't like women who speak too much.
00:47:08I've made 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, but 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, if you don't mind.
00:47:30So many musicians out there faking their music with AI, you know?
00:47:33Of course.
00:47:36But you're not in a hurry.
00:47:39Why don't we toast first to this potential partnership?
00:47:58Shall we?
00:47:59How can I resist?
00:48:00I do love straight vodka.
00:48:09But 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?
00:48:23You really think you can drug me?
00:48:25And then what?
00:48:26Force 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 and demand a live performance from the Sasha Silver?
00:48:37Do I look like a little bitch to you?
00:48:40Absolutely.
00:48:41And a fraud.
00:48:44I'll be sure no label will ever sign you, no matter how talented you are.
00:48:50I won't need a label to sign me, not when I get read records, or myself.
00:48:57Don't be shy, Casey.
00:48:58I'm just hoping you get ready.
00:49:00The paparazzi will be here any minute to see my new mistress.
00:49:02They'll plaster our photos all over the tabloids.
00:49:06Everyone will see what a slut you are.
00:49:08How you slept your way to the top.
00:49:10Your poor father.
00:49:12He's going to have no choice but to hand you and your company over to me.
00:49:17You're delusional.
00:49:18Stay away from me.
00:49:20I'm fine.
00:49:20You don't tell Sasha that.
00:49:21Hey!
00:49:23You can get your fucking hands off.
00:49:26I'll break your fucking hands.
00:49:28Dexter Hayes.
00:49:30Huh?
00:49:31Are you okay?
00:49:32I'm fine.
00:49:37What the fuck, Hayes?
00:49:39I could sue you for that.
00:49:41I'd love to see you try, sweetheart.
00:49:43You're just a wash-up addict.
00:49:44And you do not have a leg to stand on.
00:49:47Okay?
00:49:51Okay, I'm sorry.
00:49:53Jesus.
00:49:54We could have produced a sick-ass record together.
00:49:57You kind of wanted to defend this used-up slut.
00:50:00I mean, what the fuck?
00:50:03Her name is Casey Wee.
00:50:06And she's the future of the industry that you want so badly fucking in!
00:50:12Your career is dead, Sasha.
00:50:14I'm not sure of that.
00:50:17Let's go.
00:50:24Let's go.
00:50:28Give me your hand.
00:50:36Casey, I've been telling you for months.
00:50:38Sasha Silver is little-
00:50:39My business is none of your concern.
00:50:42If I didn't show up tonight, what the hell do you think would have happened?
00:50:46Do you have any idea what he could have done to you?
00:50:47He could have raped you.
00:50:48Yes!
00:50:48Okay, I know.
00:50:51Newsflash.
00:50:52I'm not your assistant anymore.
00:50:54So, it's not your concern where I am or what I'm doing, okay?
00:50:59Okay, so stop following me.
00:51:06The car is still fucking moving.
00:51:10Stop following you.
00:51:11The minute that you stop making stupid fucking decisions.
00:51:16And when I've made up for all the danger I've put her in.
00:51:21You're way too interested in my personal life, Dex.
00:51:28Won't your fiancé be jealous?
00:51:34I've been trying to tell you for weeks.
00:51:36I did not want to marry Scarlet.
00:51:41You don't fucking listen.
00:51:43And now you're really starting to piss me off.
00:51:46Isn't that the point?
00:51:58So, what am I supposed to do?
00:52:01Pretend she doesn't exist and be the pop star's secret side piece again.
00:52:10I should push him away, but I can't deny how much I miss his touch.
00:52:14You were never the side piece.
00:52:18And you know it.
00:52:28Bloss, I have news!
00:52:31Thank you for your help today, Dexter.
00:52:36Please, stop following me.
00:52:41Or else it's going to get harder and harder to walk away.
00:52:54Great timing.
00:52:56As always.
00:52:57Why are you even here?
00:52:58Done what you asked.
00:52:59News of Sasha Silver's fraudulence and drug abuse have been leaked to the press.
00:53:03No label, studio, or brand will go anywhere near.
00:53:06His net worth plummeted to zero.
00:53:08Good.
00:53:09Buy all the rice to his music.
00:53:13I'm going to give that to Casey as a gift.
00:53:20I heard what happened with Sasha.
00:53:22Now, that was way too risky, Casey.
00:53:24Look, I'm far from Dexter's biggest fan, but that could have gotten real ugly if he hadn't shown up.
00:53:29I could have handled Sasha.
00:53:30There was also a huge leak in the press.
00:53:33All of Sasha Silver's dirty laundry had out for everyone to see.
00:53:37He's been, uh, what do you kids call it?
00:53:38Cancelled.
00:53:39Who took him down?
00:53:41Dexter Hayes.
00:53:47He even bought the rights to Sasha's music.
00:53:50He can't sing anything anywhere or get sued to hell and back.
00:53:55Dex took down Sasha Silver?
00:53:57For me?
00:53:58Maybe.
00:53:59He's not as bad as I thought.
00:54:01Or maybe he should stop interfering himself with my life.
00:54:09The world-famous music producer, Echo, is set to finally reveal their identity at the legendary Universal Music Awards tomorrow
00:54:16night.
00:54:18Scarlet's getting desperate.
00:54:19She's trying to convince the world she's Echo before it can expose her lies.
00:54:23She can't keep up the act forever.
00:54:25Sooner or later, Dexter will realize she can't even hold a tune.
00:54:28Much less produce a hit track.
00:54:31Scarlet is nothing if she's not Echo.
00:54:33I mean, she knows Dexter wouldn't look at her twice, let alone marry her, if she wasn't pretending to be
00:54:39a genius producer.
00:54:40I don't know how she thinks she's going to get away with it.
00:54:44I think it's time the world finds out who the real Echo is.
00:54:52You want to go to the UMAs as Echo?
00:54:55They've invited me every year and I've always refused.
00:54:57I've let this scam go on long enough.
00:55:00It's time the world finds out the truth about Scarlet Heart.
00:55:03The world.
00:55:04Or Dexter.
00:55:08This isn't about him.
00:55:12He made his bed when he proposed to Scarlet.
00:55:14Well, my daughter deserves all the recognition of the world.
00:55:18But if you're going to go as Echo, oh, you're going to do it right.
00:55:21Ha ha, with the best equipment money can buy.
00:55:24Huh?
00:55:27I want people to see my princess for the queen that she is.
00:55:34You're the best, Dad.
00:55:49Mrs. Hayes, it's so good to see you again.
00:55:54How's Dexter?
00:55:56Engaged.
00:55:57Yes.
00:55:58My future daughter-in-law is performing at the Universal Music Awards tomorrow.
00:56:02And I'd like to gift her something to mark the occasion.
00:56:06So none of these mass-produced guitars.
00:56:09She's a musical genius.
00:56:10We need something one-of-a-kind, just like her.
00:56:13Of course.
00:56:14I have the perfect gift for her.
00:56:16A custom Fender Signature Stratocaster.
00:56:25Please don't touch that.
00:56:27Those instruments are only for our VIP clientele.
00:56:31Ugh.
00:56:31It's you.
00:56:33Get this career-sabotaging stalker out of here.
00:56:37Excuse me?
00:56:38You're disturbing our VIP customers.
00:56:41I have to ask you to leave now.
00:56:47I'm the CEO of Reed Records.
00:56:51I have just as much of a right to be here as you.
00:56:54Because of your nepo-baby connections, we all know money can't buy talent.
00:57:00Tell that to Scarlett.
00:57:02Excuse me?
00:57:03I am Dexter Hayes' fiancée and creative collaborator.
00:57:08And you don't really know anything about music.
00:57:11Yeah.
00:57:12You're right.
00:57:13In that case, you should have this.
00:57:23No!
00:57:28Oh, my God!
00:57:30Oh, my God!
00:57:30What?
00:57:34Oops.
00:57:36Slipped out of my hands.
00:57:37My bad.
00:57:39Oh!
00:57:40Are you insane?
00:57:42You just destroyed a million-dollar guitar.
00:57:45Security!
00:57:46Take this woman away!
00:57:48Hold on just one second.
00:57:50Dexter Hayes?
00:57:51Oh, my God.
00:57:54Uh, I need to speak to the owner about an offer.
00:57:56You think you set that for me?
00:57:57Yes, of course, Mr. Hayes.
00:58:02Just kidding.
00:58:04It's all yours now.
00:58:07Oh!
00:58:08Oh!
00:58:15Scarlett, ignore this wannabe musician.
00:58:18We'll find a better option.
00:58:25Like this one.
00:58:27Beyoncé used this on her last album.
00:58:30This instrument is worthy of Echo, the genius producer.
00:58:35Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:58:37Actually, actually, this guitar is no longer available.
00:58:41In fact, my entire collection is on hold for the new owner.
00:58:46I'm gonna just...
00:58:49My apologies, my apologies, my apologies, my apologies, but...
00:58:51No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, we saw it first.
00:58:54Look, look, we just want the one guitar.
00:58:57I'm sure we can come to a generous agreement.
00:58:59You could pay all you want for the guitar,
00:59:01but it's not gonna stop Scarlett from choking on the stage.
00:59:08How dare you, you little bitch!
00:59:17That's enough.
00:59:21Hi, Dexy.
00:59:24Are you okay?
00:59:26Dexter, she just insulted your Beyoncé.
00:59:30You need to do something.
00:59:32Mom, do you really want to have a conversation right here and now
00:59:35about the current status of my engagement?
00:59:38Scarlett's talent as a producer
00:59:40is the reason you're as famous as you are, Dexter.
00:59:44The least you could do is show her a little respect.
00:59:48You know what, actually, I'm sorry, you're right.
00:59:51I should show respect to the one person
00:59:55who's always been there for me.
00:59:58Please ring up the guitar for Ms. Hunt.
01:00:00I knew you would support me.
01:00:02Mr. Hayes, it's not for sale.
01:00:05You know, why don't you ask the new owner
01:00:07how much it costs, and I'll pay it,
01:00:09whatever it is, right here and now.
01:00:12Ms. Reed, as the new owner of the store,
01:00:15how much would you like to charge the guitar for?
01:00:17Wait, what?
01:00:21I'm sorry, I'm the new owner?
01:00:26Consider a late birthday gift for my former assistant.
01:00:29You did this for me?
01:00:32You really think I need a music store?
01:00:35Well, as CEO of Reed Records, you probably don't know.
01:00:37But from someone who cares about you a lot,
01:00:40why the hell not?
01:00:43Dexter!
01:00:44Are you insane?
01:00:45Jane, she's not even a real musician,
01:00:48and you gave her the entire store?
01:00:51You're gonna make us pay her for a guitar?
01:00:55Oh, it's okay.
01:00:56Scarlett could have it for free,
01:00:58as long as she shows us the big hit
01:01:00that she's working on.
01:01:04Casey, I am not stooping to your level.
01:01:07And besides, we're late for hair and makeup.
01:01:09I will talk to you about this later.
01:01:13You will regret this.
01:01:16Casey has done nothing but ruin you.
01:01:18She's just a pretty face with no talent to back it up.
01:01:22Thanks, Mom.
01:01:28Hi.
01:01:29One, I'm not your assistant anymore.
01:01:32It's Miss Reed, and I'm the CEO of Reed Records.
01:01:36Two, my birthday was months ago.
01:01:39Actually, the night that you proposed to Scarlett,
01:01:41so your gift means nothing.
01:01:46Did you know I was actually gonna tell you
01:01:47my secret that night?
01:01:48What secret?
01:01:53Secret?
01:01:53Hold on, what are you talking about?
01:01:54What secret?
01:01:58Should I tell him the truth?
01:02:01No.
01:02:02That I wanted to spend every single day
01:02:04of the rest of my life with you.
01:02:09But not anymore.
01:02:11I don't need you.
01:02:23Don't pay attention to anything she just said.
01:02:25I want you to get the best equipment
01:02:26and the best instruments to her collection.
01:02:29Yes, sir.
01:02:31Oh, and one more thing.
01:02:34She's fired.
01:02:37Yes, sir.
01:02:41Dexter, you can't do this.
01:02:42I love you.
01:02:56Mr. Hayes, Miss Hart, you're on in five.
01:02:58The broadcast will begin live.
01:03:02Did you hear that?
01:03:04Millions of fans are gonna be hearing your song.
01:03:06It's exactly what you deserve.
01:03:08The world needs to hear your talent.
01:03:11I can't believe I'm about to perform
01:03:13on the Universal Music Awards stage.
01:03:17All right, guys.
01:03:18It's time.
01:03:18Let's go.
01:03:19No.
01:03:19Scarlet!
01:03:34You can't start the show without me.
01:03:40I knew you'd make it.
01:03:41Of course she did.
01:03:42Her daddy probably got her a ticket
01:03:43after she cried about being left out.
01:03:46Dexter, Scarlet.
01:03:47You know, I'm actually surprised you showed up.
01:03:50I thought it would be too painful
01:03:51for you to witness people
01:03:52with actual talent perform
01:03:54when you yourself have none.
01:03:57Mm.
01:03:58I'm getting a lecture about talent from you.
01:04:01Oh.
01:04:02Guess we'll see who's real
01:04:03and who's fake tonight.
01:04:05Wake a leg, Scarlet.
01:04:07Or should I say, Echo?
01:04:11Echo.
01:04:11Don't choke.
01:04:13Hope you don't choke.
01:04:35The playback's down.
01:04:37The track's gone completely white.
01:04:40You have another version of the track, right?
01:04:46I didn't even make that version.
01:04:48I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer
01:04:49to send me one of her reject tracks.
01:04:51Go fix this.
01:04:52Now.
01:04:55This is bad.
01:04:56All right.
01:04:56Everyone's just out there staring at us.
01:04:58We're gonna open the broadcast
01:05:00and the label's gonna drop us.
01:05:01What are we gonna do?
01:05:04I have an idea.
01:05:06You're Echo, right?
01:05:18Yes.
01:05:19It's true.
01:05:21I'm Echo,
01:05:22the award-winning producer
01:05:24and Dexter Hayes'
01:05:25longtime mystery collaborator.
01:05:27Then prove it.
01:05:29Go ahead.
01:05:30Why don't you mix us a live track
01:05:32right here, right now?
01:05:33Come on.
01:05:34You're a genius producer, right?
01:05:36I mean, this is your chance
01:05:38to show off your talents.
01:05:39I mean, the whole world is watching.
01:05:42I don't know what any of these buttons even do.
01:05:44This bitch is trying to sabotage me.
01:05:47I must have another file I can play.
01:05:49I'll just make it look like I'm mixing in real time.
01:05:52Of course.
01:05:54Watch me work my magic.
01:06:13And that's how it's done.
01:06:15Show must go on.
01:06:17Nice try.
01:06:19Scarlet's proven herself enough.
01:06:20You can stop with the gel switch hunt now.
01:06:24Okay, can you boost the treble
01:06:25on the EQ in the middle
01:06:27and can you pan from
01:06:28stage left to stage right real quick?
01:06:32Yeah.
01:06:39Damn, I guess you're gonna have to do
01:06:41with the old-fashioned way.
01:06:42That means recording the instruments live,
01:06:44looping the...
01:06:45Don't listen to her!
01:06:47She doesn't know what it takes
01:06:48to make a track of my caliber.
01:06:50And this isn't the first time
01:06:51one of Dexter's tracks have been corrupted.
01:06:54If I didn't know any better,
01:06:56I'd think you were trying to sabotage me.
01:06:58Scarlet, Scarlet.
01:06:59Why would Casey do that?
01:07:00For real.
01:07:01Okay, you're...
01:07:01You're Echo.
01:07:03Okay, so just fix the track.
01:07:06Yeah.
01:07:07Come on, Echo.
01:07:09What, you have performance anxiety?
01:07:19Scarlet, you are our only hope now.
01:07:21You have to fix this.
01:07:23I could, if I had something other than
01:07:26this shoddy Reed Records music equipment
01:07:28to work with.
01:07:29Casey, if you're such a genius,
01:07:31why don't you fix it?
01:07:32Oh, I actually would, gladly,
01:07:35but it's actually your big night,
01:07:36so why don't you show everyone
01:07:38the brilliant Echo
01:07:39and how you made Dexter Hayes a superstar?
01:07:41Echo!
01:07:42Echo!
01:07:43Echo!
01:07:45Echo!
01:07:46Echo!
01:07:47Just your Echo, okay?
01:07:50Record some mini instruments,
01:07:51lay them down,
01:07:52make a track.
01:07:52It's that simple.
01:07:53You know how to do this.
01:07:55You really think your fiancée
01:07:57is going to be able to fix this show?
01:07:58I mean, if she goes down,
01:08:00you go down with her.
01:08:03Casey shouldn't even be here.
01:08:05I can't let her expose me.
01:08:06Not when I'm so close to marrying Dexter
01:08:08and becoming a pop legend.
01:08:32Is this part of her process?
01:08:34It would take a true genius
01:08:35to make that racket sound like music.
01:08:58Oh, my God.
01:08:59Is Scarlet Heart tone deaf?
01:09:02Come on, Echo.
01:09:03Show them your talent.
01:09:04Keep going.
01:09:05Get off the stage.
01:09:07You're ruining the UMAs.
01:09:11All right, look.
01:09:14It's done.
01:09:15You're really going to give up
01:09:16that easily, Dex?
01:09:18You're going to throw it all away
01:09:20because of Scarlet?
01:09:21Yeah, I am.
01:09:22That whole career
01:09:23that I fought for
01:09:24for however, how many years?
01:09:26Yeah.
01:09:29Because you know what?
01:09:32Someone that I was close to
01:09:33once told me
01:09:35that there's a lot more to life
01:09:36than just your career.
01:09:38And who knows,
01:09:39maybe I can get a cool new gig
01:09:40as a personal assistant
01:09:41for the new CEO of Reed Records.
01:09:45Dexter,
01:09:46stop it with those awful jokes.
01:09:49Your entire life's work
01:09:50is on the line.
01:09:51Mom,
01:09:53you heard the track, okay?
01:09:54There's no saving the song.
01:09:56Now, it's over.
01:09:57It's over.
01:10:11Well,
01:10:13I guess it's time
01:10:14for the next act of this show.
01:10:16No, no.
01:10:18There's no,
01:10:19there's no other...
01:10:20Hey!
01:10:21It's time to let a real musician
01:10:23take the stage.
01:10:31What the hell
01:10:31do you think you're doing?
01:10:33Mom, mom, stop.
01:10:35You heard of Scarlet?
01:10:38I mean,
01:10:39you can stay
01:10:40unless you want to go down
01:10:41as the worst performer
01:10:42in UMA history.
01:10:43If I couldn't mix
01:10:44a whole live track,
01:10:45what makes you think you could?
01:10:47For one,
01:10:48I know what I'm doing.
01:10:50And if you don't?
01:10:52Will you step down
01:10:53as Reed Records' CEO
01:10:54if you fail?
01:10:56Happily.
01:10:57Hmm.
01:11:00Everyone,
01:11:01we're about to watch
01:11:02the Reed Records CEO
01:11:03dig her own grave.
01:11:04It seems like Echo
01:11:05is having technical difficulties
01:11:07with her track.
01:11:09Since we're live,
01:11:10let's make something new.
01:11:12Dexter,
01:11:12sing me the first line
01:11:13of your song,
01:11:13just your voice.
01:11:16Right now.
01:11:17Right now?
01:11:23I am not
01:11:25the kind
01:11:27for a show.
01:11:31This is not
01:11:32a one-time thing.
01:11:35Lights are low,
01:11:36but I still will.
01:11:39This morning's
01:11:41got
01:11:41a sting.
01:11:44Good.
01:11:47Now let's make a hit.
01:11:56Let's fucking go.
01:12:13Wait,
01:12:13what is she doing?
01:12:16I mean,
01:12:17you produced this,
01:12:18right?
01:12:18So do you want
01:12:18to go ahead
01:12:19and take over?
01:12:20I can't.
01:12:21I don't have much.
01:12:22You don't need anything
01:12:23except for a band
01:12:25and raw talent.
01:12:26I mean,
01:12:26you are a musician,
01:12:27right?
01:12:31Since when
01:12:32has Casey Reed
01:12:33a musical junior?
01:12:34That sound,
01:12:35it's familiar.
01:12:37You are not
01:12:37the kind
01:12:39for a show.
01:12:42This is not
01:12:43a one-time thing.
01:12:45Stop!
01:12:46Stop it!
01:12:58Casey.
01:13:00You're Echo.
01:13:02Does this mean
01:13:02Casey Reed
01:13:04is Echo?
01:13:06This is my song.
01:13:08She just ripped it off.
01:13:09Who's suing now,
01:13:10Scarlett?
01:13:11Don't listen to her.
01:13:14I'm Echo.
01:13:17I didn't even
01:13:18make that version.
01:13:19I had to pay
01:13:20Taylor Swift's producer
01:13:20to send me
01:13:21one of her reject tracks.
01:13:22Go fix this.
01:13:26Now everyone
01:13:27knows the truth.
01:13:33She's the one
01:13:33that saved the song.
01:13:34No,
01:13:35that was me.
01:13:36I already did
01:13:37all the work.
01:13:37She's just
01:13:38taking the credit.
01:13:39I had to mix
01:13:40the track live,
01:13:41Dexter,
01:13:42so that makes it
01:13:43my intellectual property.
01:13:45You're welcome
01:13:46to put it on
01:13:46your next album,
01:13:47but you're gonna
01:13:48have to pay me for it.
01:13:49Where do I sign?
01:13:50I don't think
01:13:51you could afford
01:13:51my fee.
01:13:53I think you might
01:13:54just be surprised.
01:13:56200 million.
01:13:58200 million
01:13:59for one song?
01:14:01That's more than
01:14:02our entire album deal.
01:14:03Are you insane?
01:14:05And I want
01:14:06my name to be credited.
01:14:08Bad deal,
01:14:09Miss Reed.
01:14:11And one last thing.
01:14:13I want
01:14:14a public apology
01:14:15from Scarlett Hart
01:14:17and Amelia Hayes.
01:14:18That's ridiculous!
01:14:19Why should we
01:14:20apologize to you?
01:14:22I mean,
01:14:22you don't have to.
01:14:23I could just go ahead
01:14:24and leave,
01:14:24and then Scarlett
01:14:25could finish the album,
01:14:26and Dexter's career
01:14:27could crash and burn,
01:14:28so what will it be?
01:14:35The clock is ticking.
01:14:39I was wrong about you.
01:14:40You saved Dexter's song.
01:14:44I'm sorry.
01:14:47And you?
01:14:49Do it.
01:14:50Apologize to her.
01:14:52That bitch!
01:14:53Why do I have
01:14:53to apologize to her?
01:14:55She ruined everything!
01:14:57Come on,
01:14:57let's hear it.
01:14:58Tell the world the truth.
01:14:59Scarlett?
01:15:00Fine!
01:15:01I'm not Echo.
01:15:02I pretended,
01:15:03and I never wrote
01:15:04or produced
01:15:05any of Dexter's songs.
01:15:06They are happy!
01:15:11I was wrong about you.
01:15:13You saved Dexter's song.
01:15:16I'm sorry.
01:15:20And you?
01:15:21Do it.
01:15:23Apologize to her.
01:15:24That bitch!
01:15:25Why do I have
01:15:26to apologize to her?
01:15:27She ruined everything!
01:15:29Come on,
01:15:29let's hear it.
01:15:30Tell the world the truth.
01:15:31Scarlett.
01:15:33Fine!
01:15:34I'm not Echo.
01:15:35I pretended,
01:15:36and I never wrote
01:15:37or produced
01:15:37any of Dexter's songs.
01:15:39They are happy!
01:15:42They are happy!
01:15:45Wait,
01:15:46that's not
01:15:47what I really meant!
01:15:48Dexter!
01:15:50She manipulated me!
01:15:51You're still my fiance!
01:15:53You believe-
01:15:53Scarlett,
01:15:53you are exactly
01:15:54what we all see.
01:15:56You're fucking bought
01:15:56and you're a damn liar!
01:15:59Casey
01:16:00is the one
01:16:01who built my career.
01:16:02Hell,
01:16:02she's the one
01:16:03who saved the damn song!
01:16:05She's the only one
01:16:06who ever cared about me
01:16:08or loved me.
01:16:10Our engagement
01:16:11is off,
01:16:13and so is the record.
01:16:36Please don't cancel the album!
01:16:37The album
01:16:38terminating your contract
01:16:40and blacklisting you
01:16:41from the industry.
01:16:42That's where it's over.
01:16:49You got yourself
01:16:50the DL case.
01:16:59Hit it.
01:17:04If we're not here
01:17:08for long,
01:17:10tell me where
01:17:12would we belong?
01:17:16My back is passed
01:17:18against the wall.
01:17:21I need you to know
01:17:23I'm not afraid to fall.
01:17:26Your name's on fire
01:17:30in my veins.
01:17:33It's burning
01:17:34through my chains.
01:17:38Who are you
01:17:39to tell me why?
01:17:43Who am I
01:17:45to look like?
01:17:48This mirror
01:17:49shows a thousand
01:17:51faces
01:17:52and
01:17:53but none
01:17:54of them
01:17:54can't
01:17:55love
01:18:12It's burning
01:18:13no
01:18:14thought
01:18:15that
01:18:21I
01:19:04What you do next, Echo?
01:19:08You arrogant fucking whore.
01:19:12You ruined everything.
01:19:15Dexter was going to be mine.
01:19:18I was going to be the biggest pop star in the world.
01:19:30But you had to get in my way.
01:19:34That won't happen again.
01:19:36Hey, Zay!
01:19:37Dex, no!
01:19:39No!
01:19:50Dex!
01:19:50Dex, stay with me!
01:19:51Oh, my God!
01:19:56Hey, hey, hey.
01:19:59You've been here all night.
01:20:02You still love him, don't you?
01:20:05Dexter saved my life, but...
01:20:08As soon as I thank him, we can move on.
01:20:11You know, if you say so.
01:20:13But have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to save you?
01:20:17It doesn't matter now.
01:20:19Things will never return back to how they were before.
01:20:24Casey, Dexter was an absolute idiot for betraying you, okay?
01:20:27I said, but without him, I would have lost my baby girl.
01:20:32And those two songs you two produced together, they made millions believe in love.
01:20:38Your love.
01:20:39Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it.
01:20:41I mean, a love like that burns bright, but it doesn't last forever.
01:20:48Clearly, Dexter never stopped caring about you.
01:20:51Hmm?
01:20:52Maybe your love story isn't over.
01:20:53The other Reed Records executives want Dexter to headline the big festival
01:20:58and sign him to the label again.
01:21:00You know, if our CEO approves.
01:21:08Dexter is sleeping, but you can see him now.
01:21:16Don't be afraid to tell him how you feel, princess.
01:21:35It was a close call.
01:21:37One centimeter to the right.
01:21:39He could have punctured his lung.
01:21:41If Dex couldn't sing anymore, his life might as well be over.
01:21:45Hopefully, he'll recover.
01:21:47But for now, all he need is rest.
01:21:51That's it.
01:21:58What is wrong with you, Dexter?
01:22:02How could you do something so stupid?
01:22:06If you don't make it through this, I will never forgive you.
01:22:12Never.
01:22:15Bye.
01:22:17Bye.
01:22:22My God, you're beautiful.
01:22:26Why are you still mad at me?
01:22:29I think I have every right to be.
01:22:35Casey, I...
01:22:41I miss you.
01:22:42I miss him, too.
01:22:44But everything we've put each other through.
01:22:47Can we really be together again?
01:22:49You saved my life, and...
01:22:54I will be forever grateful.
01:22:59And in return, I'll give you your song for free.
01:23:02And, um...
01:23:03We can go our separate ways.
01:23:04We can end on a high note.
01:23:06Listen.
01:23:06No.
01:23:08Is that really what you want?
01:23:11To walk away from all this forever?
01:23:20Look, there's something I have to show you.
01:23:22Something I've been trying to show you.
01:23:37That horrible night when I chose Scarlet.
01:23:41I only did it because I had to.
01:23:44They forced you to choose her.
01:23:45I was trying to save your life, okay?
01:23:48I would never, ever, ever do that to you.
01:23:51I'd choose you a million times over.
01:23:53And I knew that I'd break your heart.
01:23:55And I knew that I would lose you.
01:23:57And I...
01:23:59But I'd rather risk that than losing your life forever.
01:24:07When I said I loved you, Dexter, I meant it.
01:24:11I don't want to be with anyone else.
01:24:14Me neither.
01:24:18You're my little muse.
01:24:22My pop star.
01:24:28Which...
01:24:29Reminds me.
01:24:32Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline the wildlife list.
01:24:39The wildlife festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:43You saved their CEO.
01:24:45You deserve it.
01:24:46You're the reason I sing.
01:24:48You're the reason I live.
01:24:49I don't want to songwrite or do any of this if I don't have you.
01:24:53You...
01:24:54You're my world, Casey.
01:24:58I know I've written a lot of songs, okay?
01:25:00I know.
01:25:01But none of them compare to how I feel.
01:25:04I don't want to be with you for just who you are or what you have or any of that
01:25:08stuff.
01:25:09I don't even want to sing or have this career.
01:25:11I'd give it up in a second if it meant just being with you.
01:25:14That's all I need.
01:25:17We do it together.
01:25:23I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes.
01:25:26Okay.
01:25:29I want us to do this together.
01:25:34I love you.
01:25:36I love you too.
01:25:50This is the biggest crowd I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:55Then we better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:59Yes, ma'am.
01:26:01Yes, ma'am.
01:26:09I wrote this song with Casey Reed, who is my echo.
01:26:14But more importantly, she is undoubtedly the love of my life.
01:26:21So, I hope you enjoy.
01:26:32I love you too.
01:26:52Imagine a world where we're together.
01:27:07This goes on.
01:27:11Stuff in the stockings.
01:27:14But I am still walking.
01:27:17But all we do
01:27:20Was the fool who I hated
01:27:23Now I'm recreated
01:27:26Every time I
01:27:28Look at the moonfall
01:27:30I dream of a night
01:27:32That's lost forever
01:27:35Soon
01:27:37You'll see
01:27:39That it's time
01:27:41For you and me
01:27:43It's the best so far
01:27:48We're just a little
01:27:54Every time I
01:27:56Look in your eyes
01:27:58I
01:27:59Forget where I am
01:28:01Just a little
01:28:02Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:07I dream of a night
01:28:10That's lost forever
01:28:11Yeah, yeah
01:28:15Yeah, yeah
01:28:18Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:32Every time I
01:28:34Remember to smile
01:28:36I
01:28:37Imagine a world
01:28:38We're together
01:28:42I know
01:28:43I know
01:28:45I know.
