00:00:30I chose to stay invisible because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes, the rock star
00:00:37I secretly built from the ground up. I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter. We share the same music,
00:00:46but never the same spotlight.
00:00:49Will you spit in my mouth?
00:01:01Dex, we're backstage. Someone might see us.
00:01:07I am so done hiding you.
00:01:10I have no idea what you do to me, K. So you make me feel.
00:01:13You are my favorite song.
00:01:21I lose control.
00:01:24I want you, Dex.
00:01:30I need you.
00:01:40I'm going to call you on that stage tonight.
00:01:43I'm going to sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:01:46I'm going to kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:48I'm going to claim every inch of you.
00:01:51Note by note.
00:01:53In front of the whole world.
00:02:10Hey, Kies.
00:02:11Um, what's with all the secret phone calls?
00:02:14Just, what are you hiding?
00:02:17Nothing, it's just work stuff.
00:02:20Okay.
00:02:22It's time I come clean, too.
00:02:25Once he finishes this concert, the Echo mask will come off.
00:02:28And I can finally be the real me.
00:02:31His Echo and his KC.
00:02:34Thank you.
00:02:36You are going to be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:51I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:02I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:10And now, for the star of our show, the world's hottest pop star, and my soulmate, Dexter Hayes.
00:03:38Wait for me, right here.
00:03:43Dexter Hayes is my ticket to the top of the charts.
00:03:46But I'll never lock him down as long as he's in bed with his frumpy assistant.
00:03:51A lot of applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody.
00:03:57Fans already love us.
00:03:58Dexter Hayes, you will be mine.
00:04:03Scarlet Heart.
00:04:04Dexter Hayes' groupie-turned-wannabe pop queen.
00:04:07She's always throwing herself at my boyfriend.
00:04:09Maybe once he puts a ring on it tonight, she'll finally take the hint.
00:04:14I've got a really special one for you all tonight.
00:04:17Hope you enjoy.
00:04:27Shit!
00:04:28I can't let Dexter's show get ruined.
00:04:33Echo can fix this.
00:04:37Are you here?
00:04:38I need your help.
00:04:41¿Qué es lo que está haciendo?
00:04:46Bueno, supongo que el sistema no puede lidar con todas nuestras energías y buenas vibras, así que voy a volver.
00:04:56Ahí, tu gear desde el estudio.
00:04:59¿O debería decir, Echo's gear?
00:05:01Papi, hemos hablado sobre esto. En publico, no soy tu hija, y no soy Echo.
00:05:06Pero Dexter debería saber cuánto has trabajado por él.
00:05:09You made him the star he is.
00:05:13I'm telling him tonight, but for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:18Oh, that's my girl.
00:05:22When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms.
00:05:44Oh my god, these are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs.
00:05:48Is Casey... Echo?
00:06:00Time to save Dex's concert.
00:06:02Play that song! Play that song!
00:06:05God, where's Casey? She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:07The show is a disaster. The fans are waiting. Can you please find her? I need her.
00:06:11No, Dexter.
00:06:13I'm the one you need.
00:06:15What?
00:06:24This is Echo's novel.
00:06:28Are you her?
00:06:30Are you her?
00:06:35Listen, can you please save this song?
00:06:38I already did.
00:06:42Wait.
00:06:44Dexter, there's one more thing I should probably show you.
00:06:49Casey has been hiding another man.
00:06:57All those secret phone calls, dodged questions.
00:07:00Casey was cheating on me this whole time?
00:07:04Dexter, I'm so sorry. I would never, never do this to you.
00:07:10Thanks.
00:07:19Wait, didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:07:22Uh, and we're back.
00:07:24Well, I wrote this song for the love of my life.
00:07:29At least I thought so.
00:07:39Get ready, Dex.
00:07:41And next to your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:08:05One thing to remember you by.
00:08:07One thing to remember you by.
00:08:10One thing to remember you by.
00:08:15The time I looked into your eyes.
00:08:19The secret feeling to get out.
00:08:21The time I looked into your eyes.
00:08:24The time I looked into your eyes.
00:08:33The time I looked in.
00:09:14¿Cómo puede Casey hacer esto para mí?
00:09:21¡Suscríbete al canal de Dexter Hayes!
00:09:35Él prometió que me llamó a la escena para renunciar nuestra relación.
00:09:41Yo lo amé y ella me mató.
00:09:55¡Oh, Dios mío! ¡Dexi!
00:09:57¡Oh, Dios mío! ¿Es él proposing para Scarlet Heart?
00:10:01¡Sí!
00:10:06¡Oh, Dios mío! ¡Dexi! ¡Sí!
00:10:09¡Sí!
00:10:11Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together.
00:10:15I thought Dexter loved me, trusted me.
00:10:19No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet, but she made my career and Casey betrayed me.
00:10:29It was all a lie.
00:10:33All right, I can play along with his engagement and I can move on from the woman who broke my
00:10:39heart.
00:10:47Hey, uh, Casey.
00:10:59You promised me that you'd tell the world about us tonight.
00:11:04But instead, you proposed and put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:11Casey, you gave me no choice.
00:11:14I gave you everything.
00:11:18I loved you.
00:11:20Do you love her?
00:11:22I owe her, okay?
00:11:24I owe her, all right?
00:11:26I don't...
00:11:27You owe her?
00:11:29Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plan.
00:11:32What has she ever done for you?
00:11:34Scarlet produced my career.
00:11:37She made me who I am today, okay?
00:11:40So, so, so that's why.
00:11:41What are you talking about?
00:11:45Scarlet is Echo.
00:11:52You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:57Well, I know she is.
00:11:58You know what?
00:11:59I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done for me.
00:12:03And I feel like this is a good start.
00:12:08How could you believe her lies?
00:12:10Come on, all you do is lie.
00:12:14You know, I don't even know who you are anymore.
00:12:17Is this what you wanted all along?
00:12:19To be a music industry power couple?
00:12:23To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:27He could have had that with me.
00:12:30This is all you ever really cared about.
00:12:33Isn't it?
00:12:36Not loyalty.
00:12:38Just your music.
00:12:41What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:46This is my notebook full of songs that I wrote for Dexter's first little platinum album.
00:12:54That's my notebook.
00:12:55How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:57I'm a musical genius.
00:13:00And you're just Dexter's little errand girl.
00:13:03Give it back!
00:13:04Dexter, she cut me!
00:13:07See, what has gotten into you?
00:13:09I don't...
00:13:10I don't know who you are anymore.
00:13:12Dexy, baby.
00:13:14I know all about girls like her.
00:13:16They want fame and money without really ever having to work for it.
00:13:20She's taking advantage of you.
00:13:22She has been for years.
00:13:25Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this!
00:13:28Scarlet is not Echo!
00:13:29Then tell me why I shouldn't.
00:13:31Okay, why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:36Go wait in the car.
00:13:37Please.
00:13:43Casey.
00:13:48Look, I know that you've been hiding things.
00:13:51So please just...
00:13:52Just tell me the truth.
00:13:54Okay, right now.
00:13:55Or we'll lose us forever.
00:14:00Please.
00:14:12The truth doesn't matter anymore.
00:14:15You don't trust me anyway.
00:14:22We're over.
00:14:24Dex.
00:14:28Goodbye.
00:14:29Forever.
00:14:49The hottest rock star on the planet is officially off the market.
00:14:53Dexter Hayes popped the question to up and coming singer Scarlet Hart tonight and she said yes.
00:15:06I gave Dex everything.
00:15:08I made his career but...
00:15:11He doesn't want me.
00:15:12He never did.
00:15:14What happened princess?
00:15:16Scarlet Hart.
00:15:17She stole him and now she's trying to steal my identity.
00:15:21I'll come get you.
00:15:26He said yes.
00:15:32Oh God, no.
00:15:39That's stuff!
00:15:42Why are you so much?
00:15:44You're so good to see my wife.
00:15:45Why are you?
00:15:48Why are you so good to see my wife?
00:15:50Why are you so good to see my wife?
00:15:52We're your fans, too.
00:15:54We've always shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Heart.
00:15:57We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson.
00:16:01We saw you kissing Dexter backstage.
00:16:05You're trying to steal him from his soulmate.
00:16:09I wasn't stealing him.
00:16:11We were in love.
00:16:12Or I thought we were.
00:16:15We'll see about that, won't we?
00:16:17The only way you'll live tonight is if Dexter chooses to save you.
00:16:28Where the hell is everybody?
00:16:32Dressing room, come alone.
00:16:35Choose to save Scarlet Heart and we'll spare them.
00:16:38Choose your little assistant and they both die.
00:16:43You've reached Casey. I can't come to the phone right now.
00:16:47Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:51Casey?
00:16:52So she never left a concert.
00:16:54Get back to the concert hall now.
00:16:57Dexter is coming.
00:16:59We'll see who his true love is.
00:17:02You psychos!
00:17:04Are you hoping that he chooses you over his fiancée?
00:17:09Obviously not.
00:17:11She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry.
00:17:15You fucked him, too?
00:17:17God, our precious Dexter.
00:17:20Soiled by a dirty star fucker.
00:17:24Girls like you don't deserve him.
00:17:25You don't deserve to live.
00:17:28No one knows what the real Echo looks like.
00:17:30So, if Casey dies, then the truth dies with her.
00:17:35That's not true.
00:17:37First you steal my identity, now you're trying to get me murdered.
00:17:40You're psychotic.
00:17:42No, don't worry, Casey.
00:17:44If you die today, Dex and I will make a song about you and maybe it'll even be the lead
00:17:48single on our new album.
00:17:51You're crazier than they are.
00:17:52Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:59Casey.
00:17:59Dexter!
00:18:06Dexter!
00:18:07Dexter!
00:18:08Dexter!
00:18:10Dexter!
00:18:11Dexter!
00:18:11Dexter, help me!
00:18:12They hit me and then they tied me up and now they're trying to kill me!
00:18:17Okay, guys, let's just put the guns down, okay?
00:18:21We can't do that, Dexter.
00:18:24We're your biggest fans.
00:18:26We're doing this for you.
00:18:28Okay, well, if you love me, all right, you'll put the gun down and then let these two go, please.
00:18:34No, that's not how this works.
00:18:37Dexie, you would be nothing without Echo.
00:18:40We're engaged now.
00:18:42You can't let me die.
00:18:43Dex, all the love we ever had, all the memories, all the I love yous you told me, did they
00:18:50mean anything?
00:18:51You must choose one to live.
00:18:54Will it be your future wife?
00:18:57Or your mistress?
00:18:59Who really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:03They said if I don't choose Scarlet, then they both die.
00:19:06I can save Casey, but I have to break her heart.
00:19:11Which one really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:19You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:22And you loved him?
00:19:25You leeched off him for half a decade.
00:19:28If that's what you really think, Dex, go ahead. Make your choice.
00:19:32Choose now or they both die.
00:19:34Dexter, Dexter, please. Think of everything I've done for you.
00:19:39You dumped her. You chose me. Don't let them murder me.
00:19:43That's email.
00:19:44We're pulling the trigger in three, two, one.
00:19:49Okay, okay, okay.
00:19:50I can't risk them killing Casey.
00:19:53Scarlet, all right?
00:19:54I choose Scarlet.
00:19:59Dexter, I'm gonna faint.
00:20:02I was so scared.
00:20:04He chose Scarlet?
00:20:06Good choice.
00:20:07Cheating whores deserve to die.
00:20:09Now, wait a minute. You told me that...
00:20:11You made your choice, Dexter Hayes.
00:20:14Now you get to be the one who saved your soulmate.
00:20:17And we'll take care of your scandalous side piece.
00:20:20No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:20:26I guess this is the end.
00:20:33Goodbye, Dexter.
00:20:36Put the gun down!
00:20:39Put the gun down!
00:20:41Goodbye, Dexter.
00:20:43Hey, drop the gun.
00:20:54Let's go. Let's go.
00:20:55Let's go.
00:20:56Okay.
00:20:56Oh, come on.
00:20:57Okay.
00:20:58All right.
00:21:04It's gonna be okay.
00:21:05Okay?
00:21:06You left me to die.
00:21:08And for the record, I never needed your money.
00:21:10I was right to walk away.
00:21:13Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made.
00:21:17Look, Casey.
00:21:18You don't understand, all right?
00:21:19They were gonna make me...
00:21:20I'm done living in your shadow, Dex.
00:21:25Goodbye.
00:21:30Casey.
00:21:31Casey.
00:21:32Hey.
00:21:40Casey, stop.
00:21:43Please, stop.
00:21:43Please, please.
00:21:44Where are you gonna go?
00:21:45Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:47You should be asking yourself that same question.
00:21:51Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:21:54You're delusional.
00:21:55He doesn't need you.
00:21:56He has Echo.
00:21:58Yeah.
00:21:59Sure he does.
00:22:00Fame really has changed you, Dexter Hayes.
00:22:07Fame changed me?
00:22:09Okay.
00:22:11And what about you?
00:22:12You're the one that's been sneaking around behind my back this whole time.
00:22:17I never betrayed you how you betrayed me by putting that ring on Scarlet's finger.
00:22:23You chose her and you left me for dead.
00:22:26No.
00:22:27Casey, you don't understand.
00:22:28I was trying to...
00:22:54Oh my god, that's...
00:22:54That's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records.
00:22:59So sorry it didn't come sooner, baby girl.
00:23:04You're here now.
00:23:06Take me home.
00:23:22I was trying to have everything you ever want.
00:23:27I was trying to...
00:23:28I was trying to...
00:23:29I was trying to...
00:23:30I was trying to...
00:23:36Casey!
00:23:37Casey!
00:23:38I was trying to kill.
00:23:38I was trying to kill everything.
00:23:40Casey!
00:23:41Casey!
00:23:43Let me explain!
00:23:48Scarlet.
00:23:49Mrs. Hayes.
00:23:50You should have seen it.
00:23:52I almost died.
00:23:53And that desperate skank cheated on Dexter with some sugar daddy.
00:23:57I always knew she was a gold digger.
00:24:00She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:24:03Then when that fails,
00:24:04she went after the CEO of the biggest music label in the world.
00:24:08Dexter, she never cared about you.
00:24:11She's been lying to you this entire time.
00:24:13All she ever cared about was money and power.
00:24:16I thought Casey loved me.
00:24:18But the whole time,
00:24:19she was in bed with the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:22No!
00:24:27Forget him, princess.
00:24:29Hmm?
00:24:30You are much too talented
00:24:31to be running some rockstar's errands.
00:24:34How could I be so blind?
00:24:39Three days from now,
00:24:40at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala,
00:24:42announcing you
00:24:43as the new CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:46And my daughter,
00:24:47the heiress to my empire.
00:24:50It's time to show the world
00:24:51who you really are.
00:24:53You are.
00:25:00My back is pressed.
00:25:08My back is pressed.
00:25:16My back is pressed.
00:25:19Okay, guys, cut the track.
00:25:24The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:25:27Look, guys,
00:25:28we have one week,
00:25:30all right,
00:25:30to finish this song before the release.
00:25:32The Echo that I know
00:25:34can put together a perfect studio mix
00:25:36in hours.
00:25:37You can't even fix a simple beat
00:25:39or a key.
00:25:41What's going on?
00:25:43Look, Scarlet,
00:25:44I just gotta ask.
00:25:45Are you really, Echo?
00:25:51Are you really, Echo?
00:25:55Dexy,
00:25:57of course I am.
00:25:59It's just,
00:26:01your new assistant,
00:26:02he's been messing,
00:26:03he's messing with my tracks.
00:26:05He's obviously trying to sabotage
00:26:07our new album.
00:26:08I mean, look,
00:26:11Last Saved by Max.
00:26:13Yeah, that's because
00:26:14you don't know how to do it.
00:26:15Okay, you know what?
00:26:16Echo would never put her name
00:26:17on garbage like this.
00:26:20Mr. Hayes,
00:26:21please, listen.
00:26:23It's dead, too.
00:26:24And I'm sorry,
00:26:25but my last assistant
00:26:27would have never
00:26:28screwed me over like that.
00:26:29You're fired.
00:26:37Let's do it again.
00:26:53Good luck staying at the top
00:26:54of the charts once I'm gone.
00:26:56Writing love songs
00:26:57used to be so easy
00:26:59with Casey here.
00:27:13We're sorry.
00:27:14You have reached a number
00:27:15that has been disconnected
00:27:16or is no longer in service.
00:27:19All right,
00:27:20she broke my heart
00:27:21and she moved on.
00:27:22So why can't I do the same?
00:27:42Look what we just got.
00:27:43An invitation
00:27:45to the biggest
00:27:46industry event of the year,
00:27:48the Reed Records Music
00:27:49Hall of Fame Gala.
00:27:57Look,
00:27:57I'm not interested.
00:27:59Okay,
00:27:59we have a song to finish.
00:28:00Dexter,
00:28:02you said it yourself.
00:28:03They can lay down
00:28:04a track in hours.
00:28:05We have to go.
00:28:06This is a personal invitation
00:28:07from Mr. Ed Reed himself.
00:28:11Okay,
00:28:12look,
00:28:14I know what you're thinking,
00:28:15but Casey probably
00:28:16meant nothing to him.
00:28:18He's a billionaire
00:28:18record executive.
00:28:20I'm sure he has
00:28:20a whole roster
00:28:21of scorned assistants
00:28:22lining up to get
00:28:23on their knees
00:28:23and work for a few
00:28:24extra bucks.
00:28:25You have to go
00:28:26and you have to impress him,
00:28:28okay?
00:28:28He could make
00:28:29or break our careers.
00:28:32Okay,
00:28:32I guess you're right.
00:28:34Of course I am.
00:28:36We are the industry's
00:28:38it couple.
00:28:39So now,
00:28:40forget about that
00:28:41stupid little assistant
00:28:42of yours
00:28:43and start getting ready.
00:28:45I mean,
00:28:45what was so special
00:28:46about her anyway?
00:28:47Her coarse,
00:28:50tangled hair
00:28:51or her dull,
00:28:54crusty skin
00:28:55or maybe those
00:28:57hideous,
00:28:58god-awful clothes?
00:29:01I'm Echo.
00:29:03I'm the Reed heiress.
00:29:05and I'm taking
00:29:06back everything
00:29:07that's mine.
00:29:11Scarlet,
00:29:11open the door.
00:29:12Show me smaller.
00:29:13I mean,
00:29:13tell me that's it.
00:29:14Call it.
00:29:17How does it feel
00:29:18to be at the
00:29:18event of the year
00:29:19as the industry's
00:29:20new it couple?
00:29:21We're honored.
00:29:22And with Reed Records
00:29:23on our side,
00:29:24our album is sure
00:29:25to be the number one
00:29:25hit of the decade.
00:29:27Are you excited
00:29:28to meet this
00:29:29mysterious new
00:29:30CEO of Reed Records?
00:29:31I hear Ed Reed
00:29:33is introducing
00:29:34the whole world
00:29:35to his daughter,
00:29:36the heiress
00:29:36to the Reed
00:29:37merchant.
00:29:38Do you think
00:29:38she's going to be
00:29:38the new CEO?
00:29:39I don't know.
00:29:40Who is this
00:29:41mysterious heiress?
00:29:42She is Ed Reed's
00:29:44daughter.
00:29:44I bet she'll be
00:29:45making a very
00:29:46splashy entrance.
00:29:48Whoever she is,
00:29:48we need to impress her,
00:29:49okay?
00:29:50She could be our ticket
00:29:50to a number one album.
00:29:52Look,
00:29:52here she is now!
00:30:03No fucking way!
00:30:06No fucking way!
00:30:30Casey?
00:30:34Casey?
00:30:36Hey, Dex.
00:30:37Long time no see.
00:30:41Dex has already
00:30:42moved on with Scarlet.
00:30:44I should be happy
00:30:45walking away from him.
00:30:47So,
00:30:47why does my heart
00:30:49still ache?
00:31:05Ignore her.
00:31:06And instead,
00:31:07focus on kissing up
00:31:08to Ed Reed
00:31:08so he introduces us
00:31:09to the new CEO.
00:31:11You should listen
00:31:12to her, Dexter.
00:31:14All we need to do
00:31:15is get on their good side
00:31:16and our album
00:31:16will go straight
00:31:17to number one.
00:31:19She's right.
00:31:20I have to impress
00:31:21Ed Reed and this
00:31:22new CEO
00:31:23if I want
00:31:24her album
00:31:24to be a hit.
00:31:41Scarlet!
00:31:42What a terrible surprise.
00:31:44I should have known
00:31:45you'd sneak in here
00:31:45hunting for your next
00:31:46sugar daddy,
00:31:47but this party
00:31:48is for the elite
00:31:49of the music industry only.
00:31:50I suggest you wait
00:31:51on the street corner
00:31:52with the other hookers.
00:31:53But the party's
00:31:54just getting started.
00:31:56I can't miss
00:31:56the big announcement.
00:32:01Why?
00:32:02So you can seduce
00:32:03the new CEO
00:32:04of Reed Records too?
00:32:05I hear he's much
00:32:07more selective
00:32:08than Ed Reed
00:32:08so don't expect him
00:32:09to look at you twice.
00:32:11And don't distract
00:32:12Dexter tonight.
00:32:13Leave
00:32:13or I will have security
00:32:15escort you out.
00:32:15I'd love to see you try.
00:32:18I'd love to see you try.
00:32:21Jealous?
00:32:22I loved him
00:32:24and those feelings
00:32:25don't just go away.
00:32:26How could she change
00:32:27his mind so easily?
00:32:30You can dress up
00:32:32all you want,
00:32:34but you will always
00:32:36just be Dexter's
00:32:37lowly little errant girl.
00:32:39I thought she was
00:32:40someone important.
00:32:41She's just a desperate
00:32:43assistant
00:32:43playing dress up.
00:32:45Imagine getting dragged
00:32:46by the Scarlet Heart.
00:32:48I would never
00:32:48emotionally recover.
00:32:49Where do you think
00:32:50she got the jewels though?
00:32:51Probably out whoring
00:32:52herself to old men.
00:32:54Just like all those
00:32:55desperate social climbers
00:32:57in our industry.
00:32:58Hmm.
00:32:59I got that right.
00:33:00Hmm.
00:33:01Is that so?
00:33:03Tell me something,
00:33:05Scarlet.
00:33:05Is it really me
00:33:07who's putting on an actor?
00:33:11Is it you?
00:33:14How dare you?
00:33:17Careful.
00:33:18The new CEO
00:33:19might be watching.
00:33:21Yeah.
00:33:22You think your hot shit
00:33:23just because you're
00:33:24the real Echo?
00:33:25You may have the talent,
00:33:26but you have no money
00:33:27and no connections
00:33:28besides the ones
00:33:29you make in
00:33:30pay-by-the-hour hotel rooms.
00:33:31But me,
00:33:32I'm a beloved
00:33:33up-and-coming pop star.
00:33:35And if you so much
00:33:36as threaten me
00:33:37or my career
00:33:38ever again,
00:33:39I will get you
00:33:40canceled so fucking hard
00:33:41your grandchildren
00:33:42won't be able
00:33:43to show their faces
00:33:43in public.
00:33:46Mr. Reed.
00:33:47Hi.
00:33:48Dexter Hayes.
00:33:49Thank you so much
00:33:50for the invite.
00:33:51You've always
00:33:52been a true
00:33:53hero of mine.
00:33:54Well,
00:33:55I'd really love
00:33:55to put that
00:33:57incident with
00:33:58my assistant
00:33:59behind us.
00:34:01Oh,
00:34:01Dexter Hayes,
00:34:02of course I can.
00:34:03Got you.
00:34:05Oh,
00:34:05I can't wait
00:34:06to see the look
00:34:06on his face
00:34:07when he realizes
00:34:09the assistant
00:34:09he rejected
00:34:10is my daughter,
00:34:12the heiress
00:34:13to the Reed
00:34:13record's fortune.
00:34:15Well,
00:34:15you know,
00:34:15sir,
00:34:16you may or may not
00:34:17have heard about
00:34:18the record
00:34:18that Scarlet Heart
00:34:19and I
00:34:20are working on.
00:34:21I really think
00:34:22that between
00:34:22my lyrics
00:34:23and,
00:34:24well,
00:34:24her producing
00:34:25and your musical genius
00:34:27over the last
00:34:27many decades,
00:34:28I think we could
00:34:29really make
00:34:29something special.
00:34:31Well,
00:34:31you make a compelling
00:34:32point.
00:34:34And,
00:34:34you know,
00:34:34if it's not too much,
00:34:36it actually might be
00:34:36helpful for the record.
00:34:37Well,
00:34:38maybe if you could
00:34:38put in a good word
00:34:39with the new CEO,
00:34:42well,
00:34:42that would make me
00:34:43forever grateful.
00:34:45Why don't you put
00:34:46in a good word
00:34:47yourself?
00:34:47The new CEO
00:34:48is already here.
00:35:01Casey.
00:35:03Casey.
00:35:03Casey.
00:35:05Casey.
00:35:08I-I-I've-I've been
00:35:10trying to call you
00:35:11the last few days
00:35:12and,
00:35:12well,
00:35:13I guess I'm just
00:35:13surprised that instead
00:35:14you just showed up here.
00:35:16I hated myself
00:35:17for wanting to pick up
00:35:19the phone,
00:35:20for wanting to hear
00:35:21his voice again.
00:35:22But after what he did
00:35:23to me,
00:35:23I couldn't give him
00:35:25the satisfaction.
00:35:26Oh,
00:35:27you've been calling me
00:35:28for the last few days.
00:35:29What,
00:35:30you missed me already?
00:35:31Did Ed Reed bring Casey
00:35:33as his date?
00:35:34This event is
00:35:35invite only.
00:35:39Yeah.
00:35:40Dang,
00:35:41I guess I left
00:35:42my invite at home,
00:35:43but I think
00:35:44I'm gonna stay.
00:35:45You know,
00:35:46Scarlet,
00:35:46on the other hand,
00:35:47though,
00:35:47has been throwing
00:35:48around nothing
00:35:48but vile slander
00:35:51and empty accusations
00:35:52all night.
00:35:53If anyone needs to go,
00:35:54it should be her.
00:35:55Unless you want me
00:35:57to expose your lies
00:35:58to Dexter
00:35:58right here,
00:35:59right now.
00:35:59Yeah,
00:36:01right.
00:36:01The only ones
00:36:02who can remove me
00:36:03are Mr. Reed himself
00:36:04or the new CEO.
00:36:06You have no power here.
00:36:08Okay,
00:36:08guys,
00:36:09Ed Reed and this
00:36:10new CEO
00:36:11are about to announce
00:36:12our new album.
00:36:13Can we have
00:36:15this conversation later?
00:36:16Oh,
00:36:16Dex,
00:36:18you forgot to say
00:36:19please.
00:36:23Wait,
00:36:23Casey,
00:36:24what?
00:36:29Ladies and gentlemen,
00:36:31it's time to announce
00:36:32tonight's special guest.
00:36:38Reed Records
00:36:39is the number one largest
00:36:40music label
00:36:42in the world.
00:36:43But tonight,
00:36:44I want to introduce you
00:36:46to someone
00:36:47who's more precious
00:36:47to me than any company.
00:36:49Someone who grew up
00:36:50listening to me
00:36:50play piano,
00:36:51who has written
00:36:52hundreds of songs
00:36:53and never put her name
00:36:55on one of them
00:36:56because she never
00:36:57wanted to gain fame
00:36:59through mine.
00:37:01No more secrets,
00:37:02Dexter Hayes.
00:37:03It's time you finally
00:37:04learned who you
00:37:05really rejected.
00:37:07Mr. Reed is looking
00:37:09right at us.
00:37:10He's going to call
00:37:11us on stage.
00:37:12All right,
00:37:12this is it.
00:37:13He's going to announce
00:37:14that he's signed us
00:37:15to Reed Records.
00:37:16I want to introduce
00:37:18the heir to my
00:37:19billion-dollar music
00:37:20empire
00:37:21and the new CEO
00:37:22of Reed Records.
00:37:24My princess
00:37:27and the light
00:37:28of my life,
00:37:29my daughter,
00:37:30Casey Reed.
00:37:35What?
00:37:40No.
00:37:49Casey.
00:38:06That's the Reed heiress?
00:38:08Holy shit.
00:38:09She's not a sugar baby.
00:38:10She's the daughter
00:38:11of billionaire music royalty.
00:38:14Scarlet Heart is delusional.
00:38:15Insulting the new CEO
00:38:17of Reed Records
00:38:18to her face?
00:38:19She just committed
00:38:20career suicide.
00:38:22Mr. Reed,
00:38:23your gift
00:38:23for the lady of the hour.
00:38:25Ugh,
00:38:26that's millions
00:38:27of dollars of gold.
00:38:29Dad,
00:38:30this is too much.
00:38:31There's something
00:38:32from your old man
00:38:33and now Dexter
00:38:33will see that you're
00:38:34worth more than
00:38:35your weight in gold.
00:38:36This cannot be happening.
00:38:38She's a nobody.
00:38:42I knew Casey
00:38:43was keeping secrets
00:38:44from me,
00:38:44but I didn't know
00:38:45she was hiding
00:38:46who she was.
00:38:47Ed Reed was never
00:38:48her sugar daddy.
00:38:49He was her father.
00:38:51This whole time
00:38:51she was with me
00:38:52for love,
00:38:53not fame.
00:38:54She tried to tell me
00:38:55the truth
00:38:56and instead of
00:38:56trusting her,
00:38:57I left her
00:38:58for another woman.
00:38:59How could I be
00:39:00he's so blind?
00:39:08Suits you?
00:39:10Uh, the, um,
00:39:12guitar and, uh,
00:39:13CEO title.
00:39:15Why can't you
00:39:16just say you miss me?
00:39:17Casey,
00:39:18I, I, look,
00:39:18I just...
00:39:25I thought you'd
00:39:26stay the same
00:39:28all of those years
00:39:30I just...
00:39:32I still miss you.
00:39:43Shouldn't you be
00:39:43licking your fiancé's wounds?
00:39:46Knowing she just
00:39:47insulted the CEO
00:39:48of the most powerful
00:39:49music company
00:39:50has got to hurt,
00:39:52but I mean,
00:39:52you of all people
00:39:53should know.
00:39:54Please, you have
00:39:54to believe me, okay?
00:39:55If you just let me
00:39:56explain, I promise...
00:39:57Explain what, Dexter?
00:39:58Why you want me back
00:39:59after finding out
00:40:01I'm your boss?
00:40:03Or leaving me
00:40:04for Echo?
00:40:08No, no, look,
00:40:09that's, that's not
00:40:10why I'm here.
00:40:10If you just let me
00:40:11tell you, I, I...
00:40:13I mean, come on, Casey.
00:40:14I mean, you gotta
00:40:15understand, I...
00:40:16You're the one
00:40:17who lied to me.
00:40:18I lied?
00:40:19Yeah.
00:40:19And what would you
00:40:19call getting engaged
00:40:20to Scarlet after
00:40:21promising to put a
00:40:22ring on my finger?
00:40:23I didn't want
00:40:24any of that to happen.
00:40:26You have to believe me,
00:40:27please.
00:40:27I was just trying
00:40:29to...
00:40:29Look, I...
00:40:31Just tell me
00:40:32one thing, okay?
00:40:33I guess, why are you
00:40:34here?
00:40:34Are you here just...
00:40:35Is this just some
00:40:35royal way to get
00:40:36revenge?
00:40:37Tank my career?
00:40:41Oh, tank your career.
00:40:43I made his career.
00:40:46I loved you, Dexter.
00:40:48You might have found
00:40:49out who my father
00:40:50is today,
00:40:51but you still
00:40:51have no idea
00:40:52who I am.
00:40:53Wait.
00:40:57This...
00:40:58This is why
00:40:59you proposed
00:41:00to Scarlet,
00:41:00isn't it?
00:41:01Why you left
00:41:03me for dead.
00:41:06Sucked up
00:41:07to my dad,
00:41:08threw me
00:41:09to the curb
00:41:10for the fame,
00:41:12the fortune,
00:41:13the fans.
00:41:14No, no, please.
00:41:15Actually, I think
00:41:16it's time to make
00:41:18my first decision
00:41:18as the new CEO.
00:41:21Can I get
00:41:22everyone's attention,
00:41:23please?
00:41:26I hope everyone
00:41:27is having fun.
00:41:28Reed Records
00:41:29will be ending
00:41:30its contract
00:41:31with Dexter Hayes
00:41:33and dropping him
00:41:34as an artist.
00:41:40Effective immediately.
00:41:42Oh, my God.
00:41:42Oh, my God.
00:41:43Oh, my God.
00:41:48You know,
00:41:48I am so glad
00:41:51I never told you
00:41:52who I really was
00:41:53because if I didn't,
00:41:54I might not have
00:41:55ever found out
00:41:55that you don't
00:41:56really love me for me.
00:41:57Casey,
00:41:58none of that is true,
00:41:59okay?
00:41:59None of this.
00:42:00I don't care about that.
00:42:00I've always loved you.
00:42:02Don't bother arguing
00:42:03with her anymore, Dexter.
00:42:04She may be rich,
00:42:06but she's just
00:42:07an arrogant nepo baby
00:42:08with no real talent.
00:42:10Scarlet is Echo.
00:42:11She can produce
00:42:12her songs.
00:42:13She can get you
00:42:14to the top of the charts
00:42:15with or without
00:42:16Reed Records.
00:42:17Dexter,
00:42:18you don't need her.
00:42:19She doesn't understand
00:42:20you like Scarlet does.
00:42:22Okay, Mom, Mom.
00:42:24Stop.
00:42:24You're my mom,
00:42:26not my manager,
00:42:27all right?
00:42:28I'm done talking
00:42:29about this.
00:42:49I've known you for years.
00:42:54I've seen you for years.
00:42:55I thought you'd stay
00:42:58sitting all of those years.
00:43:05I've broken there and bled.
00:43:54I thought I was clear our relationship is over, Mr. Hayes.
00:43:57You're no longer welcome at Reed Records.
00:43:59I just came to pick up my equipment.
00:44:03Casey's wrong about me.
00:44:04I never gave up on us.
00:44:06She's got another truth.
00:44:08I don't think there's anything left to talk about, Dex.
00:44:18Fine.
00:44:20Let's not talk.
00:44:30What's wrong?
00:44:31Your fiancé not keeping you satisfied.
00:44:35I've been doing too much thinking about my former assistant.
00:44:44Not anymore.
00:44:46I'm your former boss now.
00:44:48In fact, here are your termination letters.
00:44:55I don't give a fuck about the contract.
00:44:57I don't give a shit about my career.
00:44:59I just want you.
00:45:00And I know that you want me too.
00:45:03Don't act like you've forgotten what we had.
00:45:08I've been trying to, but being this close again, it feels impossible.
00:45:15You're a lot like an instrument.
00:45:17But you tremble every time we touch.
00:45:25I don't care about the fans.
00:45:27I don't give a shit about the tabloids.
00:45:29I don't care what the rec labels have to say.
00:45:30If you tell me that you want to be with me, we'll be together.
00:45:40We can tease each other all day.
00:45:44Until you finally admit that you still love me.
00:46:13You're right.
00:46:14I am like an instrument.
00:46:15The way I let you play me.
00:46:18After what you did, why would I trust you ever again?
00:46:21Listen to me.
00:46:22I've been trying to tell you I do not want to be with Scarlet.
00:46:26Hello?
00:46:28Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way.
00:46:29Thank you.
00:46:31Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:46:31Hold on.
00:46:32Sasha Silver?
00:46:33I've been telling you for months.
00:46:34The guy's a douchebag.
00:46:37A douchebag with over a hundred million strings.
00:46:40I mean, we have a Dexter Hayes-sized hole to fill, and he could be the next big thing.
00:46:44It's not safe, Casey.
00:46:46You don't need him.
00:46:47He'll hurt you.
00:46:48No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:46:49I don't think you, of all people, get to tell me what I need.
00:46:53Casey.
00:46:54Casey.
00:46:55Casey!
00:46:58Casey has every right to be angry with me after what I did.
00:47:01I have to prove she can trust me again.
00:47:15Perfect timing.
00:47:17Make yourself comfortable.
00:47:18Thank you for meeting me on self-short notice.
00:47:20Sasha generally doesn't like women who speak too much.
00:47:23I've made an exception for you.
00:47:25Do you always refer to yourself in the third person?
00:47:28I don't know what that means.
00:47:31But you want to hear one of Sasha's demos?
00:47:34They're a big hit online.
00:47:35I'm very excited about a potential partnership.
00:47:38Well, I heard to be blown away.
00:47:43Actually, I was hoping for a live performance, if you don't mind.
00:47:46So many musicians out there faking their music with AI, you know?
00:47:49Of course.
00:47:52But you're not in a hurry.
00:47:54Why don't we toast first to this potential partnership?
00:48:13Shall we?
00:48:14How can I resist?
00:48:16I do love straight vodka.
00:48:24But you know what I...
00:48:28actually love even more than that?
00:48:31What's that?
00:48:34Exposing asshole pervs.
00:48:36My hair!
00:48:37What the fuck?
00:48:39You really think you can drug me?
00:48:41And then what?
00:48:41Force me to sign you to read records?
00:48:44Now you know who you're dealing with.
00:48:47Not so fast.
00:48:49You thought you could just walk in here and demand a live performance from thee, Sasha Silver?
00:48:53Do I look like a little bitch to you?
00:48:55Absolutely, and a fraud.
00:49:00I'll be sure no label will ever sign you, no matter how talented you are.
00:49:06I won't need a label to sign me, not when I get read records, or myself.
00:49:13Don't be shy, Casey.
00:49:14I'm just hoping you get ready.
00:49:15The paparazzi will be here any minute to see my new mistress.
00:49:18He'll plaster our photos all over the tabloids.
00:49:21Everyone will see what a slut you are, how you slupped your way to the top.
00:49:26Your poor father.
00:49:28He's going to have no choice but to hand you and your company over to me.
00:49:32You're delusional.
00:49:34Stay away from me.
00:49:36I'm fine.
00:49:36You don't tell Sasha.
00:49:37Hey!
00:49:39Let's get your fucking hands off.
00:49:42I'll break your fucking hands.
00:49:44Dexter Hayes.
00:49:46Huh?
00:49:46Are you okay?
00:49:48I'm fine.
00:49:53What the fuck, Hayes?
00:49:54I could sue you for that.
00:49:57I'd love to see you try, sweetheart.
00:49:59You're just a wash-up addict.
00:50:00And you do not have a leg to stand on, okay?
00:50:07Okay, I'm sorry.
00:50:09Jesus.
00:50:10We could have produced a sick-ass record together.
00:50:13You kind of wanted to defend this used-up slut.
00:50:16I mean, what the fuck?
00:50:19The name is Casey Ring.
00:50:22And she's the future of the industry that you want so badly fucking in!
00:50:28Your career is dead, Sasha.
00:50:30I'm not sure of that.
00:50:33Let's go.
00:50:41Let's go.
00:50:44Give me your hand.
00:50:53Casey, I've been telling you for months.
00:50:54Sasha Silver is little-
00:50:56My business is none of your concern.
00:50:59If I didn't show up tonight, what the hell do you think would have happened to me?
00:51:02Do you have any idea what he could have done to you?
00:51:03He could have raped you.
00:51:04Yes!
00:51:05He could have done-
00:51:05Okay!
00:51:06I know!
00:51:08Newsflash!
00:51:08I'm not your assistant anymore!
00:51:11So, it's not your concern, where I am, or what I'm doing, okay?
00:51:15So, stop following me.
00:51:22The car is still fucking moving.
00:51:26I'll stop following you the minute that you stop making stupid fucking decisions.
00:51:32And when I've made up for all the danger I've put her in.
00:51:38You're way too interested in my personal life, Dex.
00:51:44Won't your fiancé be jealous?
00:51:50I've been trying to tell you for weeks.
00:51:53I did not want to marry Scarlet.
00:51:57But you don't fucking listen.
00:52:00And now you're really starting to piss me off.
00:52:02Isn't that the point?
00:52:14So, what am I supposed to do?
00:52:17Pretend she doesn't exist and be the pop star's secret side piece again?
00:52:26I should push him away, but I can't deny how much I miss his touch.
00:52:31You were never the side piece.
00:52:34And you know it.
00:52:45Boss, I have news!
00:52:48Thank you for your help today, Dexter.
00:52:53Please.
00:52:54Stop following me.
00:52:58Or else it's going to get harder and harder to walk away.
00:53:10Great timing.
00:53:12As always.
00:53:14Why are you even here?
00:53:15Done what you asked.
00:53:16News of Sasha Silver's fraudulence and drug abuse have been leaked to the press.
00:53:20No label, studio, or brand will go anywhere near.
00:53:22His net worth plummeted to zero.
00:53:25Good.
00:53:26Buy all the rice to his music.
00:53:29I'm going to give that to Casey as a gift.
00:53:36I heard what happened with Sasha.
00:53:38Now, that was way too risky, Casey.
00:53:40Look, I'm far from Dexter's biggest fan, but that could have gotten real ugly if he hadn't shown up.
00:53:45I could have handled Sasha.
00:53:47There was also a huge leak in the press.
00:53:49All of Sasha Silver's dirty laundry had out for everyone to see.
00:53:53He's been, uh, what do you kids call it?
00:53:55Canceled.
00:53:56Who took him down?
00:53:58Dexter Hayes.
00:54:04He even bought the rights to Sasha's music.
00:54:07He can't sing anything anywhere or get sued to hell and back.
00:54:11Dex took down Sasha Silver?
00:54:14For me?
00:54:15Maybe.
00:54:16He's not as bad as I thought.
00:54:18Or maybe he should stop interfering himself with my life.
00:54:25The world-famous music producer Echo is set to finally reveal their identity at the legendary Universal Music Awards tomorrow
00:54:32night.
00:54:34Scarlet's getting desperate.
00:54:36She's trying to convince the world she's Echo before it can expose her lies.
00:54:40She can't keep up the act forever.
00:54:42Sooner or later, Dexter will realize she can't even hold a tune.
00:54:45Much less produce a hit track.
00:54:47Scarlet is nothing if she's not Echo.
00:54:50She knows Dexter wouldn't look at her twice, let alone marry her, if she wasn't pretending to be a genius
00:54:56producer.
00:54:56I don't know how she thinks she's going to get away with it.
00:55:00I think it's time the world finds out who the real Echo is.
00:55:09You want to go to the UMAs as Echo?
00:55:12They've invited me every year and I've always refused.
00:55:14I've let this scam go on long enough.
00:55:17It's time the world finds out the truth about Scarlet Heart.
00:55:20The world.
00:55:21Or Dexter.
00:55:25This isn't about him.
00:55:29He made his bed when he proposed to Scarlet.
00:55:31Well, my daughter deserves all the recognition of the world.
00:55:35But if you're going to go to the Echo, oh, you're going to do it right.
00:55:38Ha ha, with the best equipment money can buy.
00:55:41Huh?
00:55:44I want people to see my princess for the queen that she is.
00:55:51You're the best, Dad.
00:56:06Mrs. Hayes!
00:56:08It's so good to see you again.
00:56:11How's Dexter?
00:56:13Engaged.
00:56:13Yes, my future daughter-in-law is performing at the Universal Music Awards tomorrow, and
00:56:20I'd like to gift her something to mark the occasion.
00:56:23So none of these mass-produced guitars.
00:56:26She's a musical genius.
00:56:28We need something one of a kind, just like her.
00:56:31Of course.
00:56:32I have the perfect gift for her.
00:56:34A custom Fender Signature Stratocaster.
00:56:42Please don't touch that.
00:56:44Those instruments are only for our VIP clientele.
00:56:48Yeah, it's you.
00:56:50Get this career-sabotaging stalker out of here.
00:56:54Excuse me?
00:56:56You're disturbing our VIP customers.
00:56:58I have to ask you to leave now.
00:57:05I'm the CEO.
00:57:07Of Reed Records.
00:57:09I have just as much of a right to be here as you.
00:57:12Because of your nepo-baby connections, we all know money can't buy talent.
00:57:18Tell that to Scarlet.
00:57:19Excuse me?
00:57:21I am Dexter Hayes' fiancé and creative collaborator.
00:57:25And you don't really know anything about music.
00:57:28Yeah.
00:57:29You're right.
00:57:31In that case, you should have this.
00:57:45Oh, my God!
00:57:48What?
00:57:52Oops.
00:57:53Slipped out of my hands.
00:57:55My bad.
00:57:57Are you insane?
00:57:59You just destroyed a million-dollar guitar.
00:58:02Here it is!
00:58:04Take this woman away!
00:58:05Hold on just one second.
00:58:07Dexter Hayes?
00:58:09Oh, my God.
00:58:11Uh, I need to speak to the owner about an offer.
00:58:14You think you set that up for me?
00:58:15Yes, of course, Mr. Hayes.
00:58:17Okay.
00:58:19Just kidding.
00:58:21It's all yours now.
00:58:32Scarlet, ignore this wannabe musician.
00:58:36We'll find a better option.
00:58:43Like this one.
00:58:45Beyoncé used this on her last album.
00:58:48This instrument is worthy of Echo, the genius producer.
00:58:53Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:58:54Actually, actually, this guitar is no longer available.
00:58:59In fact, my entire collection is on hold for the new owner.
00:59:09No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, we saw it first.
00:59:12Look, look, we just want the one guitar.
00:59:15I'm sure we can come to a generous agreement.
00:59:17You could pay all you want for the guitar,
00:59:19but it's not going to stop Scarlet from choking on the stage.
00:59:27How dare you, you little bitch!
00:59:35That's enough.
00:59:39Hi, Dexie.
00:59:42Are you okay?
00:59:44Dexter, she just insulted your fiancé.
00:59:48You need to do something.
00:59:50Mom, do you really want to have a conversation right here and now
00:59:53about the current status of my engagement?
00:59:56Scarlet's talent as a producer
00:59:58is the reason you're as famous as you are, Dexter.
01:00:01The least you could do is show her a little respect.
01:00:06You know, actually, I'm sorry you're right.
01:00:09I should show respect to the one person who's always been there for me.
01:00:16Please ring up the guitar for Ms. Hunt.
01:00:18I knew you would support me.
01:00:20Mr. Hayes, it's not for sale.
01:00:23You know, why don't you ask the new owner how much it costs,
01:00:26and I'll pay it whatever it is right here and now.
01:00:29Ms. Reed, as the new owner of the store,
01:00:32how much would you like to charge the guitar for?
01:00:35Wait, what?
01:00:39I'm sorry, I'm the new owner?
01:00:44Consider it a late birthday gift for my former assistant.
01:00:47You did this for me.
01:00:50You really think I need a music store?
01:00:53Well, as CEO of Reed Records, you probably don't at all.
01:00:55But I'm someone who cares about you a lot.
01:00:58Why the hell not?
01:01:00Dexter!
01:01:01Are you insane?
01:01:03She's not even a real musician,
01:01:06and you gave her the entire store?
01:01:09You're gonna make us pay her for a guitar?
01:01:13Oh, it's okay.
01:01:14Scarlett could have it for free,
01:01:16as long as she shows us the big hit that she's working on.
01:01:21Casey, I am not stooping to your level.
01:01:24And besides, we're late for hair and makeup.
01:01:27I will talk to you about this later.
01:01:31You will regret this.
01:01:34Casey has done nothing but ruin you.
01:01:36She's just a pretty face with no talent to back it up.
01:01:40Thanks, Mom.
01:01:47One, I'm not your assistant anymore.
01:01:50It's Miss Reed, and I'm the CEO of Reed Records.
01:01:53Two, my birthday was months ago.
01:01:56Actually, the night that you proposed to Scarlett,
01:01:59so your gift means nothing.
01:02:03Did you know I was actually gonna tell you my secret that night?
01:02:06What secret?
01:02:11What are you talking about?
01:02:12What secret?
01:02:16Should I tell him the truth?
01:02:19No.
01:02:20That I wanted to spend every single day of the rest of my life with you.
01:02:26But not anymore.
01:02:29I don't need you.
01:02:41Don't pay attention to anything she just said.
01:02:42I want you to get the best equipment and the best instruments to her collection.
01:02:46Yes, sir.
01:02:49Oh, one more thing.
01:02:52She's fired.
01:02:54Yes, sir.
01:02:56Thank you.
01:02:59Dexter, you can't do this.
01:03:00I love you.
01:03:02I love you.
01:03:03I love you.
01:03:14Mr. Hayes, Ms. Hart.
01:03:16You're on in five.
01:03:16The broadcast will begin live.
01:03:18Thank you.
01:03:20Did you hear that?
01:03:22Millions of fans are gonna be hearing your song.
01:03:25It's exactly what you deserve.
01:03:26The world needs to hear your talent.
01:03:30I can't believe I'm about to perform on the Universal Music Awards stage.
01:03:35All right, guys.
01:03:36It's time.
01:03:36Let's go.
01:03:37Scarlet!
01:03:52You can't start the show without me.
01:03:58I knew you'd make it.
01:03:59Of course she did.
01:04:00Her daddy probably got her a ticket after she cried about being left out.
01:04:04Dexter, Scarlet.
01:04:05You know, I'm actually surprised you showed up.
01:04:08I thought it would be too painful for you to witness people with actual talent perform
01:04:12when you yourself have none.
01:04:15Mm.
01:04:16I'm getting a lecture about talent from you.
01:04:20Oh.
01:04:20Guess we'll see who's real and who's fake tonight.
01:04:23Wear the legs, Scarlet.
01:04:25Or should I say, Echo.
01:04:29Don't choke.
01:04:31Hope you don't choke.
01:04:55The playback's down.
01:04:56The track's gone.
01:04:58Completely white.
01:04:59You have another version of the track, right?
01:05:05I didn't even make that version.
01:05:07I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me one of her reject tracks.
01:05:10Go fix this.
01:05:11Now.
01:05:14This is bad.
01:05:15All right.
01:05:15Everyone's just out there staring at us.
01:05:17We're going to burn the broadcast and the label's going to drop us.
01:05:21What are we going to do?
01:05:23I have an idea.
01:05:26You're Echo.
01:05:27Right?
01:05:38Yes, it's true.
01:05:41I'm Echo, the award-winning producer and Dexter Hayes' longtime mystery collaborator.
01:05:47Then prove it.
01:05:49Go ahead.
01:05:50Why don't you mix us a live track right here, right now?
01:05:53Come on.
01:05:54You're a genius producer, right?
01:05:56I mean, this is your chance to show off your talents.
01:05:59I mean, the whole world is watching.
01:06:02I don't know what any of these buttons even do.
01:06:04This bitch is trying to sabotage me.
01:06:07I must have another file I can play.
01:06:09I'll just make it look like I'm mixing in real time.
01:06:12Of course.
01:06:14Watch me work my magic.
01:06:33And that's how it's done.
01:06:36Show must go on.
01:06:37Nice try.
01:06:38Scarlet's proven herself enough.
01:06:40You can stop with the Joe switch hunt now.
01:06:44Okay, can you boost the treble on the EQ in the middle?
01:06:47And can you pan from stage left to stage right real quick?
01:06:52Yeah.
01:06:59Damn, I guess you're going to have to do with the old-fashioned way.
01:07:02That means recording the instruments live, looping them.
01:07:05Don't listen to her.
01:07:06She doesn't know what it takes to make a track of my caliber.
01:07:10And this isn't the first time one of Dexter's tracks have been corrupted.
01:07:14If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were trying to sabotage her.
01:07:18Scarlet, Scarlet.
01:07:19Why would Casey do that?
01:07:20For real.
01:07:21Okay.
01:07:21You're Echo.
01:07:23Okay.
01:07:23So, just fix the track.
01:07:26Yeah.
01:07:27Come on, Echo.
01:07:29What, you have performance anxiety?
01:07:39Scarlet, you are our only hope now.
01:07:42You have to fix this.
01:07:44I could, if I had something other than this shoddy Reed Records music equipment to work with.
01:07:49Casey, if you're such a genius, why don't you fix it?
01:07:52Oh, I actually would, gladly, but it's actually your big night, so why don't you show everyone
01:07:58the brilliant Echo and how you made Dexter Hayes a superstar?
01:08:02Echo!
01:08:03Echo!
01:08:04Echo!
01:08:06Echo!
01:08:06Echo!
01:08:08Just your Echo, okay?
01:08:10Record some MIDI instruments, lay them down, make a track.
01:08:13It's that simple.
01:08:13You know how to do this.
01:08:15You really think your fiancé is going to be able to fix this show?
01:08:18I mean, if she goes down, you go down with her.
01:08:23Casey shouldn't even be here.
01:08:25I can't let her expose me.
01:08:27Not when I'm so close to marrying Dexter and becoming a pop legend.
01:08:52Is this part of her process?
01:08:54It would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music.
01:09:18Oh my god, is Scarlet Heart tone deaf?
01:09:22Come on, Echo.
01:09:23Show them your talent.
01:09:24Keep going.
01:09:25Get off the stage.
01:09:27You're ruining the UMAs.
01:09:31All right, look.
01:09:34It's done.
01:09:35You're really going to give up that easily, Dex?
01:09:39You're going to throw it all away because of Scarlet?
01:09:41Yeah, I am.
01:09:42That whole career that I fought for for however, how many years?
01:09:46Yeah.
01:09:50Because you know what?
01:09:52Someone that I was close to once told me that there's a lot more to life than just your career.
01:09:58And who knows, maybe I can get a cool new gig as a personal assistant for the new CEO of
01:10:03Reed Records.
01:10:06Dexter, stop it with those awful jokes.
01:10:09Your entire life's work is on the line.
01:10:12Mom, you heard the track, okay?
01:10:15There's no saving the song.
01:10:16Now it's over.
01:10:17It's over.
01:10:33Well, I guess it's time for the next act of this show.
01:10:37No, no.
01:10:38There's no, there's, there's no other...
01:10:40Hey!
01:10:41It's time to let a real musician take the stage.
01:10:51What the hell do you think you're doing?
01:10:54Mom, mom, stop.
01:10:56You heard of Scarlet?
01:10:59I mean, you can stay unless you want to go down as the worst performer in UMA history.
01:11:04If I couldn't mix a whole live track, what makes you think you could?
01:11:08For one, I know what I'm doing.
01:11:10And if you don't?
01:11:12Will you step down as Reed Records CEO if you fail?
01:11:17Happily.
01:11:18Hmm.
01:11:21Everyone, we're about to watch the Reed Records CEO dig her own grave.
01:11:25It seems like Echo is having technical difficulties with her track.
01:11:30Since we're live, let's make something new.
01:11:33Dexter, sing me the first line of your song, just your voice.
01:11:37Right now.
01:11:38Right now.
01:11:38I am not the kind for a show
01:11:51This is not a one-time thing
01:11:55Lights are low, but I still glow
01:11:59This moment's got a sting
01:12:04Good.
01:12:08Now let's make a hit
01:12:16Let's fucking go!
01:12:34Wait, what is she doing?
01:12:37I mean, you produced this, right?
01:12:39So do you want to go ahead and take over?
01:12:41I can't.
01:12:42I don't have butt.
01:12:42You don't need anything
01:12:44Except for a band
01:12:45And raw talent
01:12:46I mean, you are a musician, right?
01:12:52Then when is Casey Reed a musical genius?
01:12:55That sounds
01:12:56It's
01:12:57Familiar
01:13:03Stop!
01:13:07Stop it!
01:13:19Casey?
01:13:21You're Echo
01:13:22Does this mean Casey Reed is Echo?
01:13:27This is my song!
01:13:28She just ripped it off!
01:13:30Who's stealing now, Scarlet?
01:13:32Don't listen to her!
01:13:34I'm Echo!
01:13:38I didn't even make that version
01:13:40I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer
01:13:41To send me one of her reject tracks
01:13:43Go fix this
01:13:47Now everyone knows the truth
01:13:54She's the one that saved the song
01:13:55No, that was me!
01:13:57I already did all the work
01:13:58She's just taking the credit
01:14:00I had to mix the track live, Dexter
01:14:03So that makes it my intellectual property
01:14:06You're welcome to put it on your next album
01:14:08But you're gonna have to pay me for it
01:14:10Where do I sign?
01:14:11I don't think you could afford my fee
01:14:14I think you might just be surprised
01:14:17200 million
01:14:18200 million?
01:14:21For one song?
01:14:22That's more than our entire album deal
01:14:24Are you insane?
01:14:25And
01:14:26I want my name to be credited
01:14:29Bad deal, Miss Reed
01:14:32And one last thing
01:14:33I want a public apology
01:14:36From Scarlet Heart and Amelia Hayes
01:14:39That's ridiculous!
01:14:40Why should we apologize to you?
01:14:43I mean, you don't have to
01:14:44I could just go ahead and leave
01:14:45And then Scarlet could finish the album
01:14:47And Dexter's career could crash and burn
01:14:49So
01:14:50What will it be?
01:14:56The clock is ticking
01:14:59I was wrong about you
01:15:01You saved Dexter's song
01:15:05I'm sorry
01:15:08And you?
01:15:10Do it
01:15:11Apologize to her
01:15:12That bitch!
01:15:14Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:15:16She ruined everything
01:15:17Come on, let's hear it
01:15:19Tell the world the truth
01:15:20Scarlet
01:15:21Fine
01:15:22I'm not Echo
01:15:23I pretended
01:15:24And I never wrote or produced
01:15:26Any of Dexter's songs
01:15:27They are happy?
01:15:30They are happy?
01:15:34Wait
01:15:34That's not what I really meant
01:15:37Dexter
01:15:38She manipulated me
01:15:40You're still my fiance
01:15:41You believe
01:15:42Scarlet, you are exactly
01:15:43What we all see
01:15:44You fucking brought
01:15:45And you're a damn liar
01:15:48Casey
01:15:49Is the one
01:15:50Who built my career
01:15:51Hell, she's the one
01:15:51Who saved the damn song
01:15:54She's the only one
01:15:55Who ever cared about me
01:15:57Or loved me
01:15:59Our engagement
01:16:00Is off
01:16:01And so is the record
01:16:24Please don't cancel the album
01:16:26The album?
01:16:28Terminating your contract
01:16:29And blacklisting you
01:16:30From the industry
01:16:31Two years old
01:16:38Got yourself a D.O. case
01:16:53If we're not here for long
01:16:58Tell me where would we belong
01:17:03My back is passed against the wall
01:17:10I need you to know
01:17:12I'm not afraid to fall
01:17:15Your name's on fire
01:17:19Your name's on fire
01:17:19In my veins
01:17:21It's burning for my chains
01:17:26Who are you to tell me why?
01:17:32Who am I to look like?
01:17:37This mirror shows a thousand faces
01:17:41But you're not all thinking about
01:17:47Go to the ground
01:17:48I'm not afraid to lose
01:17:51My, you're not afraid to lose
01:18:03I'm not afraid to lose
01:18:07I'm not afraid to lose
01:18:09To be afraid to lose
01:18:21¡Gracias!
01:18:43Award winning genius music producer Echo!
01:18:46I think everyone saw the broadcast, and my work speaks for itself.
01:18:50You are a revolution in the music industry and we can't wait to see what you do next, Echo.
01:18:58You arrogant fucking whore! You ruined everything!
01:19:05Dexter was gonna be mine!
01:19:07I was gonna be the biggest pop star in the world.
01:19:19¡Suscríbete al canal!
01:19:20Pero tienes que salir de mi camino.
01:19:24Eso no va a pasar de nuevo.
01:19:25¡Ese!
01:19:27¡Dex, no!
01:19:32¡No!
01:19:36¡Dex, no!
01:19:37¡Dex, no!
01:19:39¡Dex, no!
01:19:40¡Dex, no!
01:19:46Hey, hey!
01:19:48Hey.
01:19:49You have been here all night.
01:19:51You still love him, don't you?
01:19:55Dexter saved my life, but...
01:19:57As soon as I thank him, we can move on.
01:20:01You know, if you say so, but...
01:20:03Have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to save you?
01:20:07It doesn't matter now.
01:20:09Things will never return back to how they were before.
01:20:12Casey, Dexter fue un absoluto idiot por betrayar ti, ¿ok?
01:20:18Pero sin él, me hubiera perdido mi bebé.
01:20:22Y esas dos canciones que te producen juntos,
01:20:25ellos hicieron millones de creer en amor.
01:20:28Tu amor.
01:20:29No debería haber fallado por eso.
01:20:31Me, la amor como eso burns bright, pero no lastas forever.
01:20:38Clearly, Dexter nunca se preocupó por ti.
01:20:41No, no, tal vez la historia de su amor.
01:20:43Los otros Reade Records ejecutivos
01:20:45han visto que Dexter se hagan los grandes festivales
01:20:48y le indico a la empresa.
01:20:50Si nuestro CEO approvese.
01:20:58Dexter está dormido, pero puedes verlo ahora.
01:21:05No te preocupes de decirle cómo te sientes, Princess.
01:21:11¡Gracias!
01:21:42¡Gracias!
01:22:11I got you, beautiful.
01:22:16Why are you still mad at me?
01:22:19I think I have every right to be.
01:22:27Casey, I...
01:22:31I miss you.
01:22:32I miss him, too.
01:22:34But everything we've put each other through,
01:22:37can we really be together again?
01:22:39Dan, you saved my life, and...
01:22:45I will be forever grateful.
01:22:49And in return, I'll give you your song for free.
01:22:52And we can go our separate ways.
01:22:55We can end on a high note.
01:22:56No.
01:22:57No.
01:22:59Is that really what you want?
01:23:01To walk away from all this forever?
01:23:10Look, there's something I have to show you.
01:23:12Something I've been trying to show you.
01:23:27That horrible night when I chose Scarlet.
01:23:31I only did it because I had to.
01:23:34They forced you to choose her.
01:23:36I was trying to save your life, okay?
01:23:38I would never, ever, ever do that to you.
01:23:42I'd choose you a million times over.
01:23:44And I knew that I'd break your heart.
01:23:45And I knew that I would lose you.
01:23:48And I...
01:23:50But I'd rather risk that than losing your life forever.
01:23:58When I said I loved you, Dexter, I meant it.
01:24:02I don't want to be with anyone else.
01:24:04Me neither.
01:24:09You're my little muse.
01:24:13My pop star.
01:24:19Which...
01:24:20Reminds me.
01:24:23Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline the Wildlight Festival.
01:24:29The Wildlight Festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:34You saved their CEO.
01:24:35You deserve it.
01:24:36You're the reason I sing.
01:24:38You're the reason I live.
01:24:40I don't want to songwrite or do any of this if I don't have you.
01:24:43You...
01:24:45You're my world, Casey.
01:24:48I know I've written a lot of songs, okay?
01:24:50I know.
01:24:52But none of them compare to how I feel.
01:24:55I don't want to be with you for just who you are or what you have or any of that
01:24:59stuff.
01:25:00I don't even want to sing or have this career.
01:25:01I'd give it up in a second if it meant just being with you.
01:25:05That's all I need.
01:25:08We do it together.
01:25:14I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes.
01:25:17Okay.
01:25:20I want us to do this together.
01:25:24I love you.
01:25:27I love you too.
01:25:41It's the biggest car I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:46Then we better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:50Yes, ma'am.
01:25:52Yes, ma'am.
01:26:00I wrote this song with Casey Reed, who is my echo.
01:26:05But more importantly, she is undoubtedly the love of my life.
01:26:12So, I hope you enjoy.
01:26:34I love you too.
01:26:40I love you too.
01:27:17¡Gracias por ver!
01:27:57¡Gracias por ver!
01:28:26¡Gracias por ver!
01:28:36¡Gracias por ver!
