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.
00:03:00directors Thank you.
00:03:01We may be the following girl who is with her.
00:03:01we don't call me pretty, you know we better than that.
00:03:04Take a flight through the city,
00:03:07that makes a fool in his bae.
00:03:09He's my DJ, Theatre needs nothing.
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 y'all tonight. Hope you enjoy.
00:04:15Don't get it! Let's go!
00:04:25Shit! The backing mix is corrupted. I can't let Dex's show get ruined. Echo can fix this.
00:04:34Are you here? I need your help.
00:04:38What 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.
00:04:53There. 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.
00:05:06You made him the star he is.
00:05:10I'm telling him tonight.
00:05:12But for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:15Oh, 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?
00:05:56Time 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 Nora.

00:09:10How could Casey do this to me?
00:09:17Everyone, give it up for Dexter Hay!
00:09:31He promised he'd call me up on stage to announce our relationship.
00:09:37I loved her, and she betrayed me.
00:09:50Oh my god, Dexie!
00:09:53Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:57Yes!
00:09:58Oh 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, but she made my career, and Casey betrayed me.
00:10:25It was all a lie.
00:10:28Alright, I can play along with his engagement, and I can move on from the woman who broke my heart.
00:10:42Hey, uh, Casey.
00:10:54You promised me that you'd tell the world about us tonight, but instead you propose and put a ring on
00:11:05Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:07Casey, you gave me no choice.
00:11:10I gave you everything.
00:11:14I loved you. Do you love her?
00:11:17I owe her.
00:11:19Okay, I owe her, alright? I don't...
00:11:22You owe her?
00:11:24Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plant. What has she ever done for you?
00:11:30Scarlet produced my career. She made me who I am today. Okay, so that's why.
00:11:37What are you talking about?
00:11:40Scarlet is Echo.
00:11:47You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:52Well, I know she is. You know what? I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done
00:11:58for 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. Is this what you wanted all along? To be a
00:12:16music industry power couple? To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:22He could have had that with me.
00:12:24Me. This is all you ever really cared about. Isn't it?
00:12:30Not loyalty. Just your music.
00:12:36What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:41This is my notebook. Full of songs that I wrote for Dexter's first single platinum album.
00:12:48That's my notebook. How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:52I'm a musical genius. And you're just Dexter's little errand girl.
00:12:58Give it back.
00:13:00Dexter, she cut me!
00:13:02See what? He's gotten into you. I don't... I don't know who you are anymore.
00:13:07Dexy, baby. I know all about girls like her. They want fame and money without really ever having to work
00:13:14for it. She's taking advantage of you. She has been for years.
00:13:19Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this. Scarlet is not Echo.
00:13:24Then tell me why I shouldn't. Okay? Why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:31Go wait in the car, please.
00:13:38They're Casey.
00:13:43Look, I know that you've been hiding things.
00:13:45So please just... just tell me the truth.
00:13:49Okay, right now. Or we'll lose us forever.
00:13:54Please.
00:13:58Please.
00:14:07The truth doesn't matter anymore.
00:14:10You don't trust me anyway.
00:14:16We're over.
00:14:19Dex.
00:14:22Goodbye.
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.
00:15:00Dad, I gave Dex everything.
00:15:03I made his career, but...
00:15:05He doesn't want me.
00:15:07He never did.
00:15:08What happened, Princess?
00:15:10Scarlet Hart.
00:15:12She stole him and now she's trying to steal my identity.
00:15:16I'll come get you.
00:15:21Tracy.
00:15:22Tracy, where are you?
00:15:32Looks 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.
00:15:42Don't worry, Scarlet.
00:15:44We 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.
00:15:59We're trying to steal him from his soulmate.
00:16:02I wasn't stealing him.
00:16:05We 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...
00:16:15...is if Dexter chooses to save you.
00:16:21Who the hell is everybody?
00:16:26Dressing room.
00:16:27Come alone.
00:16:29Choose to save Scarlet Hart and we'll spare them.
00:16:32Choose your little assistant and they both die.
00:16:37You've reached Casey.
00:16:38I 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 fiancée?
00:17:02Obviously not.
00:17:04She's just some nobody who's 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
00:17:41I will make a single on our new album.
00:17:44You're crazier than they are.
00:17:46Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:52Casey.
00:17:53Dexter.
00:17:59Dexter.
00:17:59Casey.
00:18:01Dex.
00:18:02Dexter.
00:18:03Dexter.
00:18:03Dexter, help me.
00:18:05They hit me and then they tied me up and now they're trying to kill me.
00:18:10Okay guys, let's, let's just put the guns down, okay?
00:18:14We, we can't do that, Dexter.
00:18:17We're your biggest fans.
00:18:19We're doing this for you.
00:18:21Okay, well if you love me, alright, you'll put the gun down and then let these two go,
00:18:26please.
00:18:27No, that's not how this works.
00:18:30Dexie, you would be nothing without Echo.
00:18:33We're engaged now, you can't let me die.
00:18:36Dex, all the love we ever had, all the memories, all the I love you's you told me, did they
00:18:43mean anything?
00:18:44You must choose one to live.
00:18:46Will it be your future wife?
00:18:50Or your mistress?
00:18:51Who really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:18:55They said if I don't choose Scarlet, then they both die.
00:18:59I can save Casey, but I, I have to break her heart.
00:19:03Which one really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:12You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:15And you loved him?
00:19:17You leeched off him for half a decade.
00:19:20If that's what you really think, Dex, go ahead, make your choice.
00:19:24Choose now or they both die.
00:19:26Dexter, Dexter, please, think of everything I've done for you.
00:19:31You dumped her, you chose me, don't let them murder me.
00:19:35That's enough.
00:19:36We're pulling the trigger in three, two, one.
00:19:41Okay, okay, okay.
00:19:42I can't risk them killing Casey.
00:19:45Scarlet, all right?
00:19:46I choose Scarlet.
00:19:52Dexter, I'm gonna fight.
00:19:54I was so scared.
00:19:56He chose Scarlet?
00:19:58Good choice.
00:19:59Cheating whores deserve to die.
00:20:01Now, wait a minute, you told me that-
00:20:03You made your choice, Dexter Hayes.
00:20:06Now you get to be the one who saved your soulmate,
00:20:09and we'll take care of your scandalous side piece.
00:20:12No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:20:19I guess this is the end.
00:20:26Goodbye, Dexter.
00:20:29Put the gun down!
00:20:31Put the gun down!
00:20:33Goodbye, Dexter.
00:20:35Hey, drop the gun.
00:20:45Let's go.
00:20:46Let's go.
00:20:48Okay.
00:20:48Oh, come on.
00:20:49Okay.
00:20:55It's gonna be okay.
00:20:57Okay?
00:20:58You left me to die.
00:21:00And for the record, I never needed your money.
00:21:03I was right to walk away.
00:21:05Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made.
00:21:09Look, Casey, you don't understand, all right?
00:21:11They were gonna make me-
00:21:12I'm done living in your shadow, Dex.
00:21:17Goodbye.
00:21:19Okay, Casey.
00:21:23Casey.
00:21:24Hey.
00:21:32Casey.
00:21:33Casey, stop.
00:21:34Please, stop.
00:21:35Please, please.
00:21:35We're gonna go.
00:21:37Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:39You should be asking yourself that same question.
00:21:42Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:21:45You're delusional.
00:21:46He doesn't need you.
00:21:48He has Echo.
00:21:49Yeah.
00:21:50Sure he does.
00:21:52Fame really has changed you, Dexter Hayes.
00:21:58Fame changed me?
00:22:01Okay.
00:22:02And what about you?
00:22:03You're the one that's been sneaking around behind my back this whole time.
00:22:08I never betrayed you how you betrayed me by putting that ring on Scarlet's finger!
00:22:14You chose her and you left me for dead!
00:22:18No.
00:22:18In case you don't understand, I was trying to-
00:22:21No.
00:22:45In case you don't understand, I was trying to-
00:22:47You're the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:51I'm so sorry it didn't come sooner, baby girl.
00:22:55You're here now.
00:22:57Take me home.
00:23:14I'll try this!
00:23:18O'Sha жить!
00:23:19O'Sha жить!
00:23:20O'Sha жить!
00:23:20O'Sha жить!
00:23:21REBOOK HOBES!
00:23:22A coveted Perlipo deludio
00:23:28KC!
00:23:29You got a kill!
00:23:30You have everything!
00:23:31KC!
00:23:33KC!
00:23:34Let me explain!
00:23:38Scarlet.
00:23:39Mrs Hayes.
00:23:40You should have seen it.
00:23:42I almost died.
00:23:43And that desperate skank cheated on Dexter with some sugar daddy.
00:23:48I always knew she was a gold digger.
00:23:50She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:23:53And when that failed, she went after the CEO of the biggest music label in the world.
00:23:59Dexter, she never cared about you.
00:24:01She's been lying to you this entire time.
00:24:03All she ever cared about was money and power.
00:24:06I thought KC loved me.
00:24:08But the whole time, she was in bed with the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:18Forget him, princess.
00:24:20You are much too talented to be running some rockstar errands.
00:24:24How could I be so blind?
00:24:29Three days from now, at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala, announcing you as the new CEO of Reed
00:24:36Records.
00:24:36And my daughter, the heiress to my empire.
00:24:40It's time to show the world who you really are.
00:24:51My back is pressed.
00:24:59My back is pressed.
00:25:06No, no!
00:25:09Okay, guys, cut the track.
00:25:14The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:25:17Look, guys, we have one week, alright, to finish this song before the release.
00:25:23The echo that I know can put together a perfect studio mix in hours.
00:25:28You can't even fix a simple beat or a key?
00:25:31What's going on?
00:25:33Look, Scarlet, I just gotta ask.
00:25:36Are you really, Echo?
00:25:41Are you really, Echo?
00:25:45Dexy.
00:25:47Of course I am.
00:25:50It's just...
00:25:51Your new assistant, he's been messing, he's messing with my tracks.
00:25:55He's obviously trying to sabotage our new album.
00:25:58I mean, look.
00:26:01Last Saved by Max.
00:26:03Yeah, that's because you don't know how to...
00:26:05Okay, you know what?
00:26:06Echo would never put her name on garbage like this.
00:26:11Mr. Hayes, please, listen.
00:26:13It's Dexter.
00:26:14And I'm sorry, but my last assistant would have never screwed me over like that.
00:26:20You're fired.
00:26:27See it again.
00:26:42See it again.
00:26:43Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:26:47Writing love songs used to be so easy with Casey here.
00:27:03We're sorry, you have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:27:09Alright, she broke my heart and she moved on.
00:27:13So, why can't I do the same?
00:27:32Look what we just got. An invitation to the biggest industry event of the year. The Reed Records Music Hall
00:27:40of Fame Gala.
00:27:47Look, I'm not interested, okay? We have a song to finish.
00:27:50Dexter.
00:27:52You said it yourself. They can lay down a track in hours.
00:27:55We have to go. This is a personal invitation from Mr. Ed Reed himself.
00:28:02Okay, look.
00:28:04I know what you're thinking, but Casey probably meant nothing to him.
00:28:08He's a billionaire record executive.
00:28:10I'm sure he has a whole roster of scorned assistants lining up to get on their knees and work for
00:28:14a few extra bucks.
00:28:15You have to go and you have to impress him, okay? He could make or break our careers.
00:28:22Okay, I guess you're right.
00:28:24Of course I am.
00:28:26We are the industry's it couple.
00:28:29So now, forget about that stupid little assistant of yours and start getting ready.
00:28:35I mean, what was so special about her anyway?
00:28:38Her coarse, tangled hair?
00:28:43Her dull, crusty skin?
00:28:46Or maybe those hideous, god-awful clothes?
00:28:52I'm Echo.
00:28:53I'm the Reed heiress.
00:28:55And I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:29:07How does it feel to be at the event of the year as the industry's new it couple?
00:29:12We're honored.
00:29:12And with Reed Records on our side, our album is sure to be the number one hit of the decade.
00:29:17Are you excited to meet this mysterious new CEO of Reed Records?
00:29:22I hear Ed Reed is introducing the whole world to his daughter, the heiress to the Reed fortune.
00:29:28Do you think she's gonna be the new CEO?
00:29:30I don't know. Who is this mysterious heiress?
00:29:33She is Ed Reed's daughter.
00:29:35I'll bet she'll be making a very splashy entrance.
00:29:38Whoever she is, we need to impress her, okay?
00:29:40She could be our ticket to a number one album.
00:29:42Look! Here she is now!
00:29:54No fucking way!
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, but 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?
00:31:52So you can seduce the new CEO of Reed Records, too?
00:31:56I hear he's much more selective than Ed Reed, so don't expect him to look at you twice.
00:32:02And don't distract Dexter tonight.
00:32:04Leave, or I will have security escort you out.
00:32:06I'd love to see you try.
00:32:12You jealous?
00:32:13I loved him, and those feelings don't just go away.
00:32:17How could she change his mind so easily?
00:32:21You 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.
00:32:32She's just a desperate assistant playing dress-up.
00:32:36Imagine getting dragged by the Scarlet Heart.
00:32:38I would never emotionally recover.
00:32:40Where do you think she got the jewels, though?
00:32:42Probably out whoring herself to old men, just like all those desperate social climbers in our industry.
00:32:48Hmm.
00:32:49They got that right.
00:32:51Hmm.
00:32:52Is that so?
00:32:54Tell me something, Scarlet.
00:32:56Is it really me who's putting on an actor?
00:33:02Is it you?
00:33:05How 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 canceled so fucking
00:33:32hard, your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public.
00:33:37Mr. Reed.
00:33:38Hi.
00:33:38Dexter Hayes.
00:33:39Thank you so much for the invite.
00:33:42You've always been a true hero of mine.
00:33:45Well, I would really love to put that, well, that incident with my assistant behind us.
00:33:52Oh, Dexter Hayes, of course I can.
00:33:54Got you.
00:33:56Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face when he realizes the assistant he rejected is my
00:34:01daughter and the heiress to the Reed Record's fortune.
00:34:05Well, you know, sir, you may or may not have heard about the record that Scarlet Heart and I are
00:34:11working 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.
00:34:21Well, you make a compelling point.
00:34:24And, you know, if it's not too much, it actually might be helpful for the record.
00:34:28Well, maybe if you could put in a good word with the new CEO, well, that would make me forever
00:34:34grateful.
00:34:36Why don't you put in a good word yourself?
00:34:38The new CEO is already here.
00:34:53Casey, Casey, Casey, Casey, Casey, Casey, I've been trying to call you the last few days and, well, I guess
00:35:03I'm just surprised that instead you just showed up here.
00:35:06I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone, for wanting to hear his voice again.
00:35:12But after what he did to me, I couldn't give him the satisfaction.
00:35:17Oh, you've been calling me for the last few days.
00:35:20What, you missed me already?
00:35:22Did Ed Reed bring Casey as his date?
00:35:25This event is invite only.
00:35:30Yeah.
00:35:31Dang, 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.
00:35:46Unless you want me to expose your lies to Dexter right here, right now.
00:35:50Yeah, right.
00:35:51The only ones who can remove me are Mr. Reed himself or the new CEO.
00:35:56You have no power here.
00:35:58Okay, guys.
00:35:59Ed Reed and this new CEO are about to announce our new album.
00:36:04Can we have this conversation later?
00:36:06Aw, Dex.
00:36:08You forgot to say please.
00:36:13Wait, Casey, what?
00:36:19Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to announce tonight's special guest.
00:36:28Reed Records is the number one largest music label in the world.
00:36:33But tonight, I want to introduce you to someone who's more precious to me than any company.
00:36:39Someone who grew up listening to me play piano, who has written hundreds of songs and never put her name
00:36:45on one of them.
00:36:47Because she never wanted to gain fame through mine.
00:36:52No more secrets, Dexter Hayes.
00:36:54It's time you finally learned who you really rejected.
00:36:58Mr. Reed is looking right at us.
00:37:00He's gonna call us on stage.
00:37:02All right, this is it.
00:37:04He's gonna announce that he's signed us to Reed Records.
00:37:06I want to introduce the heir to my billion-dollar music empire.
00:37:11And the new CEO of Reed Records.
00:37:14My princess.
00:37:17And the light of my life.
00:37:19My daughter.
00:37:21Casey Reed.
00:37:26What?
00:37:31No.
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.
00:38:13For the lady of the hour.
00:38:15Ugh.
00:38:16That's millions of dollars of gold.
00:38:19Dad.
00:38:20This is too much.
00:38:21Well, 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 could not 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, look, I just...
00:39:20I just...
00:39:21I still miss you.
00:39:32Shouldn't you be licking your fiancé'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's not why I'm here.
00:40:00If you just let me tell you, I...
00:40:02I mean, come on, Casey.
00:40:04I mean, you gotta understand.
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, why 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 loved you, Dexter.
00:40:38You might have found out who my father is today, but you still have no idea who I am.
00:40:42Wait.
00:40:47This...
00:40:47This is why you proposed to Scarlet, isn't it?
00:40:51Why you left me for dead.
00:40:55Sucked up to my dad.
00:40:57Threw me to the curb.
00:41:00For the fame.
00:41:01The fortune.
00:41:02The fans.
00:41:03No, no, please.
00:41:04No, no, no.
00:41:04No, actually, I think it'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, none 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.
00:42:01She can produce songs.
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, stop.
00:42:14You're my mom, not my manager, all right?
00:42:17I'm done talking about this.
00:42:39You've known you for years.
00:42:44I thought you'd stay the same.
00:42:48All of those years.
00:42:53I've broken their place.
00:43:06I'm still missing you.
00:43:10I'm still, I'm still, I'm still missing you.
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.
00:45:28Until you finally admit
00:45:30that you
00:45:32still
00:45:34love 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 strings.
00:46:25I mean, we have a Dexter Hayes size hole to fill
00:46:27and he could be the next big thing.
00:46:29It's not safe, Casey.
00:46:30You don't need him.
00:46:32No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:46:33I don't think you, of all people,
00:46:36get to tell me what I need.
00:46:38Casey.
00:46:39Casey.
00:46:40Casey!
00:46:42Casey 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 such 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.
00:48:09But, you know what I
00:48:11actually
00:48:13love even more than that?
00:48:15What's that?
00:48:17Exposing
00:48:18asshole pervs.
00:48:20My hair!
00:48:21What the fuck?
00:48:23You really think 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
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.
00:48:54Or 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
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.
00:49:08How you slept your way to the top.
00:49:10Your poor father.
00:49:12He's gonna have no choice
00:49:13but to hand you and your company
00:49:15over to me.
00:49:17You're delusional.
00:49:18Stay away from me.
00:49:20I'm fine.
00:49:20You don't tell Sasha.
00:49:22Hey!
00:49:23You get your fucking hands off me.
00:49:26Come on, break your fucking hands.
00:49:29Mr. 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
00:49:55a sick-ass record together.
00:49:57You kind of wanted to defend
00:49:58this used-up slut.
00:50:00I mean, what the fuck?
00:50:03The name is Casey Wee.
00:50:06And she's the future
00:50:07of the industry
00:50:09that you want so badly
00:50:10fucking in!
00:50:12Your career is dead, Sasha.
00:50:14I'm not sure of that.
00:50:17Let's go.
00:50:25Let's go.
00:50:28Give me your hand.
00:50:36Casey, I've been telling you
00:50:38for months,
00:50:38Sasha Silver is little-
00:50:39My business
00:50:40is none of your concern.
00:50:42If I didn't show up tonight,
00:50:44what the hell do you think
00:50:45would have happened?
00:50:46Do you have any idea
00:50:46what he could have done to you?
00:50:47He could have raped you.
00:50:48Yes!
00:50:49Okay!
00:50:49I know!
00:50:51Newsflash!
00:50:52I'm not your assistant
00:50:53anymore!
00:50:55So,
00:50:55it's not your concern
00:50:56where I am
00:50:57or what I'm doing.
00:50:59Okay?
00:50:59So stop
00:51:02following me.
00:51:06The car is still
00:51:08fucking moving.
00:51:09Stop following you
00:51:11the minute that you
00:51:12stop making stupid
00:51:14fucking decisions.
00:51:16And when I've made up
00:51:17for all the danger
00:51:18I've put her in.
00:51:21You're way
00:51:24too interested
00:51:25in my personal life,
00:51:27Dex.
00:51:28Won't your fiance
00:51:29be jealous?
00:51:34I've been trying
00:51:35to tell you
00:51:36for weeks
00:51:36I did not
00:51:38want
00:51:39to marry
00:51:39Scarlet.
00:51:41You don't fucking
00:51:43let me.
00:51:44Now you're really
00:51:44starting to piss me off.
00:51:46Isn't that the point?
00:51:49I'm not.
00:51:50I'm not.
00:51:52I'm not.
00:51:54I'm not.
00:51:58I'm not.
00:51:58I'm not.
00:51:59I'm not.
00:52:00Should you pretend
00:52:01she doesn't exist
00:52:03and be
00:52:04the pop star's
00:52:05secret side piece
00:52:07again?
00:52:10I should push him
00:52:11away, but
00:52:12I can't deny
00:52:13how much I miss
00:52:14his touch.
00:52:14You were never
00:52:15the side piece.
00:52:18And you know it.
00:52:28boss, I have news.
00:52:31Thank you for
00:52:33your help
00:52:33today, Dexter.
00:52:36Please,
00:52:37stop following me.
00:52:41Or else it's
00:52:42going to get harder
00:52:43and harder
00:52:44to walk away.
00:52:54Great timing.
00:52:56As always.
00:52:57Why are you even
00:52:58here?
00:52:58Done what you
00:52:59asked.
00:52:59News of Sasha
00:53:00Silver's fraudulence
00:53:01and drug abuse
00:53:02have been leaked
00:53:02to the press.
00:53:03No label,
00:53:04studio,
00:53:04brand will go
00:53:05anywhere near.
00:53:06His net worth
00:53:07plummeted to zero.
00:53:08Good.
00:53:09Buy all the rice
00:53:10to his music.
00:53:12I'm going to give
00:53:13that to Casey
00:53:14as a gift.
00:53:20I heard what
00:53:20happened with
00:53:21Sasha.
00:53:22Now that was
00:53:22way too risky,
00:53:23Casey.
00:53:24Look, I'm far
00:53:24from Dexter's
00:53:25biggest fan,
00:53:26but that could
00:53:26have gotten
00:53:27real ugly
00:53:27if he hadn't
00:53:28shown up.
00:53:29I could have
00:53:29handled Sasha.
00:53:30There was also
00:53:31a huge leak
00:53:32in the press.
00:53:33All of Sasha's
00:53:34silvers,
00:53:34dirty laundry
00:53:35had out
00:53:35for everyone
00:53:36to see.
00:53:37He's been,
00:53:37what do you
00:53:38kids call it,
00:53:38canceled.
00:53:39Who took him
00:53:40down?
00:53:41Dexter Hayes.
00:53:47He even
00:53:48bought the
00:53:49rights to
00:53:49Sasha's music.
00:53:50He can't
00:53:51sing anything
00:53:52anywhere or
00:53:53get sued to
00:53:53hell and back.
00:53:54Dex took
00:53:55down Sasha
00:53:56Silver for
00:53:57me?
00:53:58Maybe.
00:53:59He's not as
00:54:00bad as I
00:54:00thought.
00:54:01Or maybe he
00:54:02should stop
00:54:03interfering himself
00:54:03with my life.
00:54:09The world
00:54:10famous music
00:54:10producer Echo
00:54:11is set to
00:54:12finally
00:54:12reveal their
00:54:13identity at
00:54:14the legendary
00:54:14Universal Music
00:54:15Awards tomorrow
00:54:16night.
00:54:18Scarlet's
00:54:18getting desperate.
00:54:19She's trying to
00:54:20convince the world
00:54:20she's Echo
00:54:21before it can
00:54:22expose her lies.
00:54:23She can't keep
00:54:24up the act
00:54:24forever.
00:54:25Sooner or later
00:54:26Dexter will
00:54:26realize she can't
00:54:27even hold a tune.
00:54:29Much less
00:54:29produce a hit
00:54:30track.
00:54:31Scarlet is
00:54:31nothing if she's
00:54:32not Echo.
00:54:33She knows Dexter
00:54:34wouldn't look at
00:54:35her twice, let
00:54:36alone marry her,
00:54:37if she wasn't
00:54:38pretending to be
00:54:39a genius producer.
00:54:40I don't know
00:54:40how she thinks
00:54:41she's going to
00:54:41get away with it.
00:54:44I think it's
00:54:44time the world
00:54:46finds out who
00:54:47the real Echo
00:54:47is.
00:54:52You want to
00:54:52go to the UMAs
00:54:54as Echo?
00:54:55They've invited
00:54:55me every year
00:54:56and I've always
00:54:56refused.
00:54:57I've let this
00:54:58scam go on
00:54:59long enough.
00:55:00It's time the world
00:55:01finds out the truth
00:55:02about Scarlet
00:55:03Heart.
00:55:03The world
00:55:04or Dexter.
00:55:08This isn't about
00:55:09him.
00:55:12He made his bed
00:55:13when he proposed
00:55:13to Scarlet.
00:55:14Well, my daughter
00:55:15deserves all the
00:55:16recognition of the
00:55:16world.
00:55:18But if you're
00:55:19going to go as Echo,
00:55:20oh, you're going to
00:55:20do it right.
00:55:21Ha ha, with the
00:55:22best equipment money
00:55:23can buy.
00:55:24Huh?
00:55:27I want people to
00:55:28see my princess
00:55:29for the queen
00:55:30that she is.
00:55:34You're the best,
00:55:35Dad.
00:55:48Mrs. Hayes!
00:55:50It's so good to
00:55:52see you again.
00:55:54How's Dexter?
00:55:56Engaged.
00:55:57Yes.
00:55:58My future
00:55:58daughter-in-law
00:55:59is performing
00:56:00at the Universal
00:56:01Music Awards
00:56:02tomorrow,
00:56:02and I'd like to
00:56:03gift her something
00:56:04to mark the
00:56:05occasion.
00:56:06So none of
00:56:06these mass-produced
00:56:08guitars.
00:56:09She's a musical
00:56:10genius.
00:56:11We need something
00:56:11one-of-a-kind,
00:56:12just like her.
00:56:13Of course.
00:56:14I have the
00:56:15perfect gift for
00:56:16her, a custom
00:56:17Fender Signature
00:56:18Stratocaster.
00:56:23Ah.
00:56:25Please don't
00:56:26touch that.
00:56:27Those instruments
00:56:28are only for our
00:56:28VIP clientele.
00:56:30Eugh.
00:56:31It's you.
00:56:33Get this
00:56:33career-sabotaging
00:56:35stalker out of here.
00:56:37Excuse me?
00:56:38You're disturbing
00:56:39our VIP customers.
00:56:41I have to ask you
00:56:42to leave
00:56:42now.
00:56:48I'm the CEO
00:56:49of Reed Records.
00:56:51I have just as much
00:56:53of a right to be
00:56:54here as you.
00:56:54Because of your
00:56:55Nepo baby
00:56:56connections,
00:56:56we all know money
00:56:58can't buy talent.
00:57:00Hmm.
00:57:01Tell that to
00:57:01Scarlett.
00:57:02Excuse me?
00:57:04I am Dexter Hayes'
00:57:05fiancee and creative
00:57:07collaborator.
00:57:08And you don't really
00:57:09know anything about
00:57:09music.
00:57:11Yeah.
00:57:12You're right.
00:57:13In that case,
00:57:15you should have this.
00:57:23No!
00:57:27Oh my God!
00:57:30Oh my God!
00:57:34Oops.
00:57:36Slipped out of my
00:57:37hands.
00:57:37My bad.
00:57:39Oh!
00:57:40Are you insane?
00:57:42You just destroyed
00:57:43a million dollar
00:57:44guitar!
00:57:45Security!
00:57:46Take this woman
00:57:47away!
00:57:48Hold on just
00:57:48one second.
00:57:50Dexter Hayes?
00:57:51Oh my God!
00:57:54Uh, I need to
00:57:54speak to the owner
00:57:55about an offer.
00:57:56You think you
00:57:57set that up for me?
00:57:57Yes, of course,
00:57:58Mr. Hayes!
00:57:59Okay.
00:58:02Just kidding.
00:58:04It's all yours now.
00:58:14Scarlet, ignore this
00:58:16wannabe musician.
00:58:18We'll find a better
00:58:20option.
00:58:21Mmm.
00:58:25Like this one.
00:58:27Beyonce used this
00:58:28on her last album.
00:58:30This instrument is
00:58:31worthy of Echo,
00:58:33the genius producer.
00:58:35Hey, hey, hey, hey,
00:58:36hey, hey!
00:58:37Actually, actually,
00:58:39this guitar is no
00:58:40longer available.
00:58:41In fact, my entire
00:58:42collection is on hold
00:58:44for the new owner.
00:58:46I'm gonna just...
00:58:49My apologies,
00:58:50my apologies,
00:58:50apologies, but...
00:58:51No, no, no, no,
00:58:52no, no, no, no,
00:58:53we saw it first!
00:58:54Look, look,
00:58:55we just want the
00:58:56one guitar.
00:58:57I'm sure we can come
00:58:58to a generous
00:58:58agreement.
00:58:59You could pay all
00:59:00you want for the
00:59:01guitar, but it's not
00:59:02gonna stop Scarlet
00:59:03from choking
00:59:04on the stage.
00:59:08How dare you,
00:59:11you little bitch!
00:59:17That's enough.
00:59:21Hi, Dexy.
00:59:24Are you okay?
00:59:26Bixter,
00:59:27she just insulted
00:59:29your Beyonce.
00:59:30You need to do
00:59:31something.
00:59:32Mom,
00:59:33do you really want
00:59:33to have a conversation
00:59:34right here and now
00:59:35about the current
00:59:36status of my
00:59:36engagement?
00:59:38Scarlet's talent
00:59:39as a producer
00:59:40is the reason
00:59:41you're as famous
00:59:42as you are,
00:59:43Dexter.
00:59:44The least you
00:59:45could do is
00:59:45show her a little
00:59:46respect.
00:59:48You know what,
00:59:49actually,
00:59:50I'm sorry,
00:59:51you're right.
00:59:51I should show
00:59:53respect to
00:59:54the one person
00:59:55who's always been
00:59:55there for me.
00:59:58Please ring up
00:59:59the guitar
00:59:59for Miss Hyde.
01:00:00I knew you
01:00:01would support me.
01:00:02Mr. Hayes,
01:00:03it's not for sale.
01:00:05You know,
01:00:05why don't you
01:00:06ask the new
01:00:07owner how much
01:00:08it costs
01:00:08and I'll pay it
01:00:09whatever it is
01:00:10right here and
01:00:10now.

01:00:27birthday gift
01:00:27for my former
01:00:28assistant.

01:00:32you really
01:00:32think I need

01:00:53her for
01:00:54a guitar?
01:00:55Oh,

01:00:57it for free,

01:03:10talent.
01:03:11I can't
01:03:12believe I'm
01:03:13about to
01:03:13perform on
01:03:13the Universal
01:03:14Music Awards
01:03:15stage.
01:03:17All right,
01:03:17guys,
01:03:18it's time.
01:03:18Let's go.
01:03:19Scarlet!
01:03:34You can't
01:03:35start the show
01:03:35without me.
01:03:40I knew you'd make it.
01:03:41Of course she did.
01:03:42Her daddy probably got her a ticket after 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 for you to witness people with actual talent perform
01:03:54when you yourself have none.
01:03:57Mmm.
01:03:58I'm getting a lecture about talent from you.
01:04:01Oh, guess we'll see who's real and who's fake tonight.
01:04:05Wake a leg, Scarlet.
01:04:07Or should I say, Echo.
01:04:09Don't choke.
01:04:13Hope you don't choke.
01:04:36The playback's down.
01:04:37The track's gone.
01:04:38Completely 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 to send me one of her reject tracks.
01:04:51Go fix this.
01:04:52Now.
01:04:55This is bad.
01:04:56All right, everyone's just out there staring at us.
01:04:58We're gonna open the broadcast and 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, it's true.
01:05:21I'm Echo, the award-winning producer and Dexter Hayes' long-time mystery collaborator.
01:05:27Then prove it.
01:05:29Go ahead.
01:05:30Why don't you mix us a live track right here, right now?
01:05:33Come on.
01:05:34You're a genius producer, right?
01:05:36I mean, this is your chance to 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.
01:06:18Scarlet's proven herself enough.
01:06:21You can stop with the jealous witch hunt now.
01:06:24Okay, can you boost the treble on the EQ in the middle?
01:06:27And can you pan from stage left to stage right real quick?
01:06:32Yeah.
01:06:39Damn, I guess you're gonna have to do with the old-fashioned way.
01:06:42That means recording the instruments live, looping the...
01:06:45Don't listen to her.
01:06:47She doesn't know what it takes to make a track of my caliber.
01:06:50And this isn't the first time one of Dexter's tracks have been corrupted.
01:06:54If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were trying to sabotage her.
01:06:58Scarlet, Scarlet.
01:06:59Why would Casey do that?
01:07:00For real.
01:07:01Okay.
01:07:01You're...
01:07:01You're Echo.
01:07:03Okay.
01:07:03So, just fix the track.
01:07:06Yeah.
01:07:07Come on, Echo.
01:07:09You know what?
01:07:09You have performance anxiety?
01:07:19Scarlet, you are our only hope now.
01:07:22You have to fix this.
01:07:23I could, if I had something other than this shoddy Reed Records music equipment to work with.
01:07:29Casey, if you're such a genius, why don't you fix it?
01:07:32Oh, I actually would, gladly.
01:07:35But it's actually your big night, so...
01:07:37Why don't you show everyone the brilliant Echo and how you made Dexter Hayes a superstar?
01:07:41Echo!
01:07:42Echo!
01:07:43Echo!
01:07:44Echo!
01:07:45Echo!
01:07:46Echo!
01:07:47Just your Echo, okay?
01:07:50Record some mini instruments, lay them down, make a track.
01:07:52It's that simple.
01:07:53You know how to do this.
01:07:55You really think your fiancé is going to be able to fix this show?
01:07:58I mean, if she goes down, you go down with her.
01:08:03I mean, if she doesn't even be here, I can't let her expose me.
01:08:06Not when I'm so close to marrying Dexter and becoming a pop legend.
01:08:11Whoop.
01:08:32Is this part of her process?
01:08:34It would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music.
01:08:58Oh my god, is 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 that easily, Dex?
01:09:18You're going to throw it all away because of Scarlet?
01:09:20Yeah, I am.
01:09:22That whole career that I fought for forever, how many years?
01:09:26Yeah.
01:09:29Because you know what?
01:09:32Someone that I was close to once told me that there's a lot more to life than just your career.
01:09:38And who knows, maybe I can get a cool new gig as a personal assistant for the new CEO of
01:09:43Reed Records.
01:09:45Dexter, stop it with those awful jokes.
01:09:49Your entire life's work is on the line.
01:09:51Mom, you heard the track, okay?
01:09:54There's no saving the song.
01:09:56Now it's over.
01:09:57It's over.
01:10:06It's over.
01:10:12Well, I guess it's time for the next act of this show.
01:10:17No, no, there's no, there's, there's no other, everybody, hey!
01:10:21It's time to let a real musician take the stage.
01:10:30What the hell do you think you're doing?
01:10:33Mom, mom, stop.
01:10:35You heard of Scarlet?
01:10:38I mean, you can stay unless you want to go down as the worst performer in UMA history.
01:10:43If I couldn't mix a whole live track, what makes you think you could?
01:10:47For one, I know what I'm doing.
01:10:49And if you don't?
01:10:51Will you step down as Reed Records CEO if you fail?
01:10:56Happily.
01:10:57Hmm.
01:11:00Everyone, we're about to watch the Reed Records CEO dig her own grave.
01:11:04It seems like Echo is having technical difficulties with her track.
01:11:09Since we're live, let's make something new.
01:11:12Dexter, sing me the first line of your song, just your voice.
01:11:16Right now.
01:11:17Right now.
01:11:23I am not the kind for a show.
01:11:31This is not a one-time thing.
01:11:35Lights are low, but I still will.
01:11:39This morning's got a sting.
01:11:44Good.
01:11:47Now let's make a hit.
01:11:56Let's fucking go!
01:12:13Wait, what is she doing?
01:12:16I mean, you produced this, right?
01:12:18So do you want to go ahead and take over?
01:12:20I can't.
01:12:21I don't have much.
01:12:22You don't need anything except for a band and raw talent.
01:12:26I mean, you are a musician, right?
01:12:31Since when is Casey Reed a musical junior?
01:12:34That sound, it's familiar.
01:12:37I am not the kind for a show.
01:12:42This is not a one-time thing.
01:12:45Stop!
01:12:46Stop it!
01:12:46Let's go.
01:12:58Casey.
01:13:01You're Echo.
01:13:02Does this mean Casey Reed is Echo?
01:13:06This is my song.
01:13:07She just ripped it off.
01:13:08Who's stealing now, Scarlet?
01:13:11Don't listen to her.
01:13:13I'm Echo.
01:13:17I didn't even make that version.
01:13:19I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me one of her reject tracks.
01:13:22Go fix this.
01:13:26Now everyone knows the truth.
01:13:33She's the one that saved the song.
01:13:34No, that was me.
01:13:36I already did all the work.
01:13:37She's just taking the credit.
01:13:39I had to mix the track live, Dexter.
01:13:42So that makes it my intellectual property.
01:13:45You're welcome to put it on your next album, but you're going to have to pay me for it.
01:13:49Where do I sign?
01:13:50I don't think you could afford my fee.
01:13:53I think you might just be surprised.
01:13:56$200 million.
01:13:58$200 million for one song?
01:14:01That's more than our entire album deal.
01:14:03Are you insane?
01:14:05And I want my name to be credited.
01:14:08Bad deal, Miss Reed.
01:14:11And one last thing.
01:14:13I want a public apology from Scarlet Heart and Amelia Hayes.
01:14:18That's ridiculous.
01:14:19Why should we apologize to you?
01:14:22I mean, you don't have to.
01:14:23I could just go ahead and leave and then Scarlet could finish the album.
01:14:26And Dexter's career could crash and burn.
01:14:28So, what will it be?
01:14:35The clock is ticking.
01:14:38I 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 to apologize to her?
01:14:55She ruined everything.
01:14:57Come on, let's hear it.
01:14:58Tell the world the truth.
01:14:59Scarlet.
01:15:00Fine!
01:15:01I'm not Echo.
01:15:03I pretended and I never wrote or produced any of Dexter's songs.
01:15:06They are happy!
01:15:11I 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 to apologize to her?
01:15:27She ruined everything.
01:15:29Come on, let's hear it.
01:15:30Tell the world the truth.
01:15:31Scarlet.
01:15:32Fine.
01:15:34I'm not Echo.
01:15:35I pretended and I never wrote or produced any of Dexter's songs.
01:15:39They are happy!
01:15:42They are happy!
01:15:45Wait.
01:15:46That's not what I really meant.
01:15:48Dexter.
01:15:50She manipulated me.
01:15:51You're still my fiance.
01:15:53You believe me?
01:15:53Scarlet, you are exactly what we all see.
01:15:56Fuckin' plot and you're a damn liar.
01:15:59Cassie is the one who built my career.
01:16:02Hell, she's the one who saved the damn song.
01:16:05She's the only one who ever cared about me or loved me.
01:16:10Our engagement is off.
01:16:12And so is the record.
01:16:36Please don't cancel the album.
01:16:37The album?
01:16:39Terminating your contract.
01:16:40And blacklisting you from the industry.
01:16:42I swear it's over.
01:16:48You got yourself a deal case.
01:16:59Hit it.
01:17:04If we're not here for long, tell me where would we belong?
01:17:16My back is passed against the wall.
01:17:20I need you to know I'm not afraid to fall.
01:17:27Your name's on fire in my veins.
01:17:33It's burning for my chains.
01:17:37Who are you to tell me why?
01:17:43Who am I to look like?
01:17:48This mirror shows a thousand faces.
01:17:52Will it not be and who's going strong?
01:17:59I can't believe it.
01:18:02Love is so happy.
01:18:05Love is so happy.
01:18:06Oh my.
01:18:08Oh my.
01:18:09I beat it.
01:18:09Oh my.
01:18:11Oh my.
01:18:11Oh my.
01:18:13Oh my.
01:18:16Oh my.
01:18:50Ms. Reed, the whole world wants to know, are you the award-winning genius music producer, Echo?
01:18:57I think everyone saw the broadcast, and my work speaks for itself.
01:19:00You are a revolution in the music industry, and we can't wait to see what you do next, Echo.
01:19:09You arrogant fucking whore! You ruined everything!
01:19:16Dexter was going to be mine! I 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, say!
01:19:37Dex, no!
01:19:50Dex! Dex, 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 her, don't you?
01:20:05Dexter saved my life, but as soon as I thank him, we can move on.
01:20:11You know, if you say so, but have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to
01:20:17save 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?
01:20:28I 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.
01:20:40Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it.
01:20:41I mean, a love like that burns bright, but it doesn't last forever.
01:20:48Clearly, Dexter never stopped caring about you, hmm?
01:20:52Maybe your love story isn't over.
01:20:54The other Reed Records executives want Dexter to headline the big festival and sign him to the label again.
01:21:00You know, if our CEO approves.
01:21:08Dexter is sleeping, but you can see him now.
01:21:16Don'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.
01:21:40If 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.
01:22:21I got you, 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, can 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 we can go our separate ways.
01:23:04We can end on a high note.
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, and I knew that I would lose you, and I...
01:23:59But I'd rather risk that than losing your life forever.
01:24:07When I said I loved you, Dexter, I meant it.
01:24:11I don't want to be with anyone else.
01:24:14Me neither.
01:24:19You're my little muse.
01:24:23My pop star.
01:24:28Which...
01:24:29Reminds me.
01:24:32Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline the Wildlight List.
01:24:39The Wildlight Festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:43You saved their CEO.
01:24:45You deserve it.
01:24:46You're the reason I sing.
01:24:48You're the reason I live.
01:24:49I don't want to song write or do any of this if I don't have you.
01:24:53You...
01:24:54You're my world, Casey.
01:24:57I 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.
01:25:17You 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.
01:25:37I love you, too.
01:25:50This is the biggest cry I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:55Then we better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:59Yes, ma'am.
01:26:01Yes, ma'am.
01:26:05Yes, ma'am.
01:26:09I wrote this song with Casey Reed, who is my echo, but more importantly, she is undoubtedly the love of
01:26:18my life.
01:26:21So, I hope you enjoy.
01:26:38See ya!
01:26:44Still, I listen to it all.
01:26:48Every time I remember to smile, like I imagine the world way together.
01:27:07This goes on
01:27:11Stuff in the stockings
01:27:14But I am still walking
01:27:16But all we do
01:27:19Was the fool who I hated
01:27:23Now I'm recreated
01:27:25Every time I look at the moon
01:27:30For a dream of a night
01:27:32That's lost forever
01:27:36Soon you'll see
01:27:39That it's time for you and me
01:27:44Just a bear so far
01:27:48We're just a little
01:27:54Every time I look in your eyes
01:27:58I forget where I am
01:28:01Just a little
01:28:02Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:07I dream of a night
01:28:10That's lost forever
01:28:11Yeah, yeah
01:28:17I'm taking and talking
01:28:20But I will be watching
01:28:22Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
01:28:25Do it
01:28:25Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
01:28:28The mirror in heaven
01:28:29My heart is still beating
01:28:31Every time I remember to smile
01:28:36Will I imagine a world
01:28:38We're together
01:28:51I know
01:28:52I can't resist
