Short filmTranscript
00:00:16My name is Casey Reed. No one knows I'm the heiress of Reed Records. The billion-dollar
00:00:22music empire, or that I'm Echo, the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys. I chose to
00:00:29stay invisible, because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes, the rock
00:00:35star I secretly built from the ground up. I'm his assistant, his lover, and his
00:00:41ghostwriter. We 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.
00:01:04I am so done hiding you. I have no idea what you do to me, Casey, how you make me
00:01:10feel.
00:01:11You are my favorite song. I lose control. My little man.
00:01:25I want you, Dex. I need you.
00:01:35Because you're already mine, I'm gonna call you on that stage tonight. I'm gonna sing
00:01:42the song that I wrote to you. I'm gonna kiss you in front of everybody. I'm gonna claim
00:01:47every 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? Just, what are you hiding?
00:02:14Nothing. It's just work stuff. Okay.
00:02:19It's time I come clean, too. Once he finishes this concert, the echo mask will come off.
00:02:26And I can finally be the real me. His echo and his Casey.
00:02:33You are gonna be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:49I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:00You are gonna be my technically fine.
00:03:02You're going to be the real me.
00:03:06You are now.
00:03:09You are now.
00:03:23And now, for the star of our show, the world's hottest pop star, and my soulmate, Dexter Hayes!
00:03:35Wait for me, right here?
00:03:40Dexter Hayes is my ticket to the top of the charts, but I'll never lock him down as long as
00:03:45he's in bed with his grumpy assistant.
00:03:49A lot of applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody!
00:03:54Fans 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.
00:04:11I've got a really special one for you all tonight. Hope you enjoy.
00:04:15Go, Dex!
00:04:16Go!
00:04:17Go!
00:04:24Shit! The backing mix is corrupted.
00:04:27I can't let Dex's show get ruined. Echo can fix this.
00:04:34Are you here?
00:04:35I 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...
00:04:48I'll be right back.
00:04:53There. Your gear from the studio.
00:04:56Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:04:58Dad! We've talked about this.
00:05:00In public, I am not your daughter, and I'm not Echo.
00:05:03But 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.
00:05:11But for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:14Oh, that's my girl.
00:05:19When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms.
00:05:41Oh, my God.
00:05:43These are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs.
00:05:45Is Casey... Echo?
00:05:56Time to save Dex's concert.
00:05:58Play Dex's song! Play Dex's song!
00:06:01God, where's Casey?
00:06:02She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:04The show is a disaster.
00:06:06The fans are waiting.
00:06:07Can you please find her? I need her.
00:06:08No, Dexter.
00:06:10I'm the one you need.
00:06:12What?
00:06:21This is Echo's novel.
00:06:24Are you her?
00:06:26Are you her?
00:06:31Listen, can you please save this song?
00:06:34I already did.
00:06:38Wait.
00:06:40Dexter, there's one more thing I should probably show you.
00:06:45Casey has been hiding another man.
00:06:53All those secret phone calls, dodged questions.
00:06:57Casey was cheating on me this whole time?
00:07:00Dexter, I'm so sorry.
00:07:02I would never, never do this to you.
00:07:06Thanks.
00:07:15Wait, didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:07:18Uh, and we're back.
00:07:20Well, I wrote this song for the love of my life.
00:07:25At least I thought so.
00:07:35Get ready, Dex.
00:07:36And next, your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:07:44I'm a man.
00:08:02Every time that I look, I remember the time I saw you, I'm one thing to remember about.
00:08:11The time I looked into your eye
00:08:14A secret feeling again
00:08:16I know I was running out of time
00:09:02I know I was running out of time
00:09:10How could Casey do this to me?
00:09:17Everyone, give it up for Dexter Hayes!
00:09:31He promised he'd call me up on stage to announce our relationship
00:09:35I loved her, and she betrayed me
00:09:49Oh my god! Dexie!
00:09:53Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:56Yes!
00:09:57Yes!
00:10:01Oh my god! Dexie!
00:10:03Yes!
00:10:05Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together
00:10:09I thought Dexter loved me, trusted me
00:10:14No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet
00:10:17But she made my career, and Casey betrayed me
00:10:24It was all a lie
00:10:28Alright, I can play along with his engagement
00:10:31And I can move on from the woman who broke my heart
00:10:42Hey, uh, Casey
00:10:54You promised me
00:10:57That you'd tell the world about us tonight
00:10:59But instead, you'd propose and put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:06Casey, you gave me no choice
00:11:09I gave you everything
00:11:13I loved you! Do you love her?
00:11:17I owe her, okay?
00:11:19I owe her, alright? I don't...
00:11:22You owe her?
00:11:24Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plant
00:11:27What has she ever done for you?
00:11:29Scarlet produced my career
00:11:31She made me who I am today
00:11:33Okay, so that's why
00:11:36What are you talking about?
00:11:40Scarlet is Echo
00:11:47You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:51Well, I know she is
00:11:52You know what?
00:11:54I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done for me
00:11:57And I feel like this is a good start
00:12:02How could you believe her lies?
00:12:04Come on, all you do is lie
00:12:08You know, I don't even know who you are anymore
00:12:11Is this what you wanted all along?
00:12:14To be a music industry power couple?
00:12:18To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:21He could have had that with me
00:12:24This is all you ever really cared about
00:12:27Isn't it?
00:12:30Not loyalty
00:12:33Just your music
00:12:35What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:40This is my notebook
00:12:43Full of songs that I wrote
00:12:45For Dexter's first triple platinum album
00:12:48That's my notebook
00:12:49How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:52I'm a musical genius
00:12:53And you're just Dexter's little errand girl
00:12:57Give it back
00:12:59Dexter, she cut me
00:13:01Dexter, what has gotten into you?
00:13:03I don't
00:13:04I don't know who you are anymore
00:13:06Dexter, baby
00:13:08I know all about girls like her
00:13:11They want fame and money without really ever having to work for it
00:13:14She's taking advantage of you
00:13:17She has been for years
00:13:18Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this
00:13:22Scarlet is not Echo
00:13:23Then tell me why I shouldn't
00:13:25Okay, why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:31Go wait in the car, please
00:13:37But Casey
00:13:43Look, I know that you've been hiding things
00:13:45So please just, just tell me the truth
00:13:48Okay, right now
00:13:49Or we'll lose us forever
00:13:54Please
00:13:58Please
00:14:07The truth doesn't matter anymore
00:14:09You don't trust me anyway
00:14:16We're over
00:14:17Dex
00:14:21Goodbye
00:14:23Forever
00:14:43The hottest rock star on the planet is officially off the market
00:14:47Dexter Hayes popped the question to up and coming singer Scarlet Hart tonight and she said yes
00:15:00I gave Dex everything
00:15:02I made his career, but
00:15:04He doesn't want me
00:15:06He never did
00:15:07What happened princess?
00:15:10Scarlet Hart
00:15:11She stole him and now she's trying to steal my identity
00:15:15I'll come get you
00:15:22I'll come get you
00:15:32It looks like Dexter's whore is awake
00:15:34Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man
00:15:39Who are you?
00:15:40Let me go
00:15:42Let me go
00:15:43Don't worry Scarlet
00:15:43We won't hurt you
00:15:45We won't hurt you
00:15:46We're your friends too
00:15:47We've only shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Hart
00:15:50We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson
00:15:54We saw you kissing Dexter backstage
00:15:58You're trying to steal him from his soul mate
00:16:02I wasn't stealing him
00:16:04We were in love
00:16:05Or I thought we were
00:16:08We'll see about that won't we
00:16:10The only way you'll live tonight
00:16:14Is if Dexter chooses to save you
00:16:21Who the hell is everybody?
00:16:26Dressing room
00:16:27Come alone
00:16:28Choose to save Scarlet Hart
00:16:30And we'll spare them
00:16:31Choose your little assistant
00:16:33And they both die
00:16:36You've reached Casey
00:16:37I can't come to the phone right now
00:16:40Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:44Casey?
00:16:45So she never left a concert?
00:16:47Get back to the concert hall now
00:16:50Dexter is coming
00:16:51We'll see who his true love is
00:16:54You psychos!
00:16:57Are you hoping that he chooses you over his fiancee?
00:17:02Obviously not
00:17:04She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry
00:17:07You fucked him too?
00:17:09God, our precious Dexter
00:17:13Soiled by a dirty star fucker
00:17:15Girls like you don't deserve him
00:17:18Girls like you don't deserve him
00:17:19You don't deserve to live
00:17:20No one knows what the real Echo looks like
00:17:23So, if Casey dies
00:17:25Then the truth dies with her
00:17:27That's not true!
00:17:30First you steal my identity
00:17:31Now you're trying to get me murdered?
00:17:33You're psychotic!
00:17:34No, don't worry Casey
00:17:36If you die today Dex and I will make a song about you
00:17:39And maybe it'll even be the least single on our new album
00:17:43You're crazier than they are
00:17:45Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:52Dex!
00:17:57Dex!

00:18:03Dexter! Dexter help me!
00:18:04They hit me!
00:18:05And then they tied me up!
00:18:07And now they're trying to kill me!
00:18:09Okay guys, let's...
00:18:11Let's just put the guns down, okay?
00:18:13We... we can't do that Dexter!
00:18:16We're your biggest fans!
00:18:18We're doing this for you!
00:18:20Okay, well if you love me
00:18:23Alright?
00:18:23You'll put the gun down
00:18:25And then let these two go, please!
00:18:26No, that's not how this works!
00:18:29Dexie!
00:18:30You would be nothing without Echo!
00:18:33We're engaged now, you can't let me die!
00:18:36Dex!
00:18:36All the love we ever had
00:18:38All the memories, all the I love you's you told me
00:18:41Did they mean anything?
00:18:43You must choose one to live!
00:18:46Will it be your future wife?
00:18:49Or 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
00:18:58I can save Casey, but I...
00:19:00I have to break her heart
00:19:02Which one really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:11You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:14And you loved him?
00:19:16You leeched off him for half a decade!
00:19:20If that's what you really think, Dex
00:19:22Go ahead, make your choice
00:19:24Choose now or they both die!
00:19:26Dexter!
00:19:27Dexter, please!
00:19:28Think of everything I've done for you!
00:19:30You dumped her!
00:19:32You chose me!
00:19:33Don't let them murder me!
00:19:35That's enough!
00:19:36We're pulling the trigger in 3...
00:19:402...
00:19:401...
00:19:41Okay, okay, okay!
00:19:42I can't risk them killing Casey
00:19:45Scarlet, alright?
00:19:46I choose Scarlet
00:19:51Dexter, I'm gonna faint!
00:19:54I was so scared
00:19:55He 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
00:20:05Now you get to be the one who saved your soul mate
00:20:09And we'll take care of your scandalous side piece
00:20:12No, no, no, no, no!
00:20:19I guess...
00:20:20This is the end
00:20:26Goodbye, Dexter
00:20:28Put the gun down!
00:20:31Put the gun down!
00:20:32Goodbye, Dexter
00:20:34Hey, drop the gun!
00:20:45Let's go!
00:20:46Let's go!
00:20:47Let's go!
00:20:47Let's go!
00:20:47Okay!
00:20:48Okay!
00:20:49Alright!
00:20:55It's gonna be okay
00:20:56Okay?
00:20:57You left me to die!
00:20:59And for the record, I never needed your money!
00:21:02I was right to walk away!
00:21:05Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made!
00:21:08Look, Casey, you don't understand, alright?
00:21:10They were gonna make me...
00:21:11I'm...
00:21:12Done!
00:21:14Living in your shadow, Dex!
00:21:16Goodbye!
00:21:22Okay, Casey, Casey!
00:21:23Hey!

00:21:32Casey, stop!
00:21:33Please, stop!
00:21:34Please, please!
00:21:35We're gonna go...
00:21:36Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:38You should be asking yourself that same question!
00:21:42Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone!
00:21:44You're delusional!
00:21:46He doesn't need you, he has Echo!
00:21:49Yeah...
00:21:50Sure he does!
00:21:51Fame 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!
00:22:17No, Casey, you don't understand, I was trying to...
00:22:44Oh my god, that's... that's... that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:48Oh my god, that's... that's... that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:50I'm so sorry I didn't come sooner, baby girl!
00:22:55You're here now.

00:23:34Let me explain!
00:23:38Scarlett.
00:23:39Mrs. Hayes, you should have seen it.
00:23:41I almost died.
00:23:43And that desperate skank cheated on Dexter
00:23:45with some sugar daddy.
00:23:47I always knew she was a gold digger.
00:23:50She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:23:52And when that failed, she went after
00:23:55the CEO of the biggest music
00:23:56label in the world.
00:23:58Dexter, 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
00:24:04and power.
00:24:05I thought Kaysha loved me.
00:24:08But the whole time, she was in bed with
00:24:10the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:17Forget him, princess.
00:24:19Hmm?

00:29:55no
00:30:19casey
00:30:24Casey?
00:30:25Hey, Dex. Long time no see.
00:30:31Dex has already moved on with Scarlet. I should be happy walking away from him.
00:30:37So, why does my heart still ache?
00:30:55Ignore her. And instead, focus on kissing up to Ed Reed so he introduces us to the new CEO.
00:31:01You 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.
00:31:31Scarlet, what a terrible surprise.
00:31:34I should have known you'd sneak in here hunting for your next sugar daddy.
00:31:37But this party is for the elite of the music industry only.
00:31:41I suggest you wait on the street corner with the other hookers.
00:31:44But the party's just getting started. I can't miss the big announcement.
00:31:51Why? So you can seduce the new CEO of Reed Records too?
00:31:55I hear he's much more selective than Ed Reed, so don't expect him to look at you twice.
00:32:01And don't distract Dexter tonight. Leave or I will have security escort you out.
00:32:06I'd love to see you try.
00:32:11Jealous?
00:32:13I loved him, and those feelings don't just go away. How could she change his mind so easily?
00:32:20You can dress up all you want. But you will always just be Dexter's lowly little errant girl.
00:32:29I thought she was someone important. She's just a desperate assistant playing dress up.
00:32:35Imagine getting dragged by THE Scarlet Heart. I would never emotionally recover.
00:32:40Where do you think she got the jewels though?
00:32:41Probably out whoring herself to old men. Just like all those desperate social climbers in our industry.
00:32:48Hmm. They got that right.
00:32:50Hmm. Is that so?
00:32:53Tell me something, Scarlet. Is it really me? Who's putting on an actor?
00:33:01Is it you?
00:33:04How dare you?
00:33:07Careful.
00:33:08The new CEO might be watching.
00:33:12You think you're hot shit just because you're the real Echo.
00:33:15You may have the talent, but you have no money and no connections besides the ones you make in pay
00:33:20-by-the-hour hotel rooms.
00:33:22But me? I'm a beloved up-and-coming pop star.
00:33:25And if you so much as threaten me or my career ever again, I will get you cancelled so fucking
00:33:31hard your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public.
00:33:36Mr. Reed. Hi. Dexter Hayes.
00:33:39Thank you so much for the invite. Um, you've always been a true hero of mine.
00:33:44Well, I would really love to put that, um, well, that incident with my assistant behind us.
00:33:51Oh, Dexter Hayes, of course I can.
00:33:54Got you.
00:33:55Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face when he realizes the assistant he rejected is my
00:34:01daughter.
00:34:02Yeah, the heiress to the Reed records fortune.
00:34:05Well, you know, sir, um, well, you may or may not have heard about, uh, the record that Scarlett Hart
00:34:10and I are, uh, working on.
00:34:11I really think that between my lyrics and, well, her producing and your musical genius over the last many decades,
00:34:18I think we could really make something special.
00:34:20Yeah.
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, uh, the new CEO, I, I, well, that would
00:34:33make me forever, forever grateful.
00:34:35Why don't you put in a good word yourself?
00:34:38The new CEO is already here.
00:34:52Casey, Casey, Casey, Casey, Casey.
00:34:58Uh, I've, I've been trying to call you the last few days, and, well, I guess I'm just surprised that
00:35:04instead you just showed up here.
00:35:05I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone, for wanting to hear his voice again, but after what
00:35:13he did to me, I couldn't give him the satisfaction.
00:35:16Oh, you've been calling me for the last few days. What, you missed me already?
00:35:21Did Ed Reed bring Casey as his date?
00:35:24This event is invite only.
00:35:29Yeah. Dang, I guess I left my invite at home, but I think I'm gonna stay.
00:35:35You know, Scarlett, on the other hand, though, has been throwing around nothing but vile slander and empty accusations all
00:35:42night.
00:35:43If anyone needs to go, it should be her. Unless you want me to expose your lies to Dexter right
00:35:49here, right now.
00:35:50Yeah, right. The only ones who can remove me are Mr. Reed himself or the new CEO. You have no
00:35:56power here.
00:35:57Okay, guys. Ed Reed and this new CEO are about to announce our new album. Can we have this conversation
00:36:05later?
00:36:06Aw, Dex. You forgot to say please.
00:36:12Wait, Casey, what, what?
00:36:19Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to announce tonight's special guest.
00:36:27Reed Records is the number one largest music label in the world.
00:36:33But tonight, I wanna introduce you to someone who's more precious to me than any company.
00:36:39Someone who grew up listening to me play piano, who has written hundreds of songs and never put her name
00:36:45on one of them.
00:36:46Because she never wanted to gain fame through mine.
00:36:51No more secrets, Dexter Hayes. It's time you finally learned who you really rejected.
00:36:57Mr. Reed is looking right at us. He's gonna call us on stage.
00:37:01All right, this is it. He's gonna announce that he's signed us to Reed Records.
00:37:06I want to introduce the heir to my billion dollar music empire.
00:37:11The new CEO of Reed Records.
00:37:14My princess, in the light of my life.
00:37:19My daughter, Casey Reed.
00:37:25What?
00:37:26What?
00:37:31No.
00:37:39Casey.
00:37:56That's the Reed heiress?
00:37:58Holy shit. She's not a sugar baby. She's the daughter of billionaire music royalty.
00:38:03Scarlet Heart is delusional. Insulting the new CEO of Reed Records to her base?
00:38:09She just committed career suicide.
00:38:11Mr. Reed, your gift. For the lady of the hour.
00:38:15Ugh, that's millions of dollars of gold.
00:38:19Dad, this is too much.
00:38:21A little something from your old man. And now Dexter will see that you're worth more than your weight in
00:38:25gold.
00:38:26This cannot be happening.
00:38:28She's a nobody!
00:38:31I 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. He was her father.
00:38:40This 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.
00:38:48How could I be so blind?
00:38:57What suits you?
00:39:00Uh, the, um, guitar and, uh, CEO title.
00:39:04Why can't you just say you miss me?
00:39:07Casey, I, I love, I just...
00:39:08I've gone before years.
00:39:14I thought you'd stay the same.
00:39:18All of those years...
00:39:20I just... I still miss you.
00:39:30Ah!
00:39:32Shouldn't you be licking your fiancé's wounds?
00:39:35Knowing 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? If you just let me explain, I promise...
00:39:46Explain what, Dexter?
00:39:47Why you want me back?
00:39:49After finding out I'm your boss?
00:39:53Or leaving me for Echo?
00:39:57No, no, look, that, that's, that's not why I'm here. If you just let me tell you, I, I...
00:40:02I mean, come on, Casey. I mean, you gotta understand, I...
00:40:05You're the one who lied to me.
00:40:07I lied.
00:40:08Yeah.
00:40:08And what would you call getting engaged to Scarlet after promising to put a ring on my finger?
00:40:12I didn't want any of that to happen. You have to believe me, please. I was just trying to...
00:40:19Look, I...
00:40:20Just tell me one thing, okay? I guess, why, why are you here? Are you here just...
00:40:24Is this just some royal way to get revenge?
00:40:26Tank my career?
00:40:30Oh, tank your career.
00:40:32I made his career.
00:40:35I loved you.
00:40:37Dexter, you might have found out who my father is today, but you still have no idea who I am.
00:40:42Wait.
00:40:46This...
00:40:47This is why you proposed to Scarlet, isn't it?
00:40:51Why...
00:40:51You left...
00:40:53Me...
00:40:53For dead.
00:40:55Sucked up to my dad...
00:40:57Threw me to the curb...
00:40:59For the fame.
00:41:01The fortune.
00:41:02The fans.
00:41:02No, no, no, no.
00:41:04Actually, 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.
00:41:17Read Records will be ending its contract with Dexter Hayes and dropping him as an artist.
00:41:28Effective immediately.
00:41:30Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!
00:41:36You 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.
00:41:45Casey.
00:41:46None of that is true, okay?
00:41:48None of this.
00:41:48I don't care about that.
00:41:49I've always loved you.
00:41:51Don't bother arguing with her anymore, Dexter.
00:41:53She may be rich, but she's just an arrogant nepo baby with no real talent.
00:41:59Scarlet is Echo.
00:42:00She can produce your songs.
00:42:02Wait, wait, Casey!
00:42:02She can get you to the top of the charts with or without Read Records.
00:42:06Dexter, you don't need her.
00:42:08She doesn't understand you like Scarlet does.
00:42:11Okay, mom, mom, stop.
00:42:13You're my mom, not my manager, alright?
00:42:16I'm done talking about this.
00:42:38I've known you for years
00:42:42I thought you'd say the same
00:42:47All of those years
00:42:52I've broken their place
00:43:00Made a twine
00:43:03Lost in my life
00:43:06I'm still missing you
00:43:10I'm still
00:43:12I'm still
00:43:14I'm still missing you
00:43:18I'm still missing you
00:43:28It all twine
00:43:30Heart and mind
00:43:33I'm still missing you
00:43:42I thought I was clear our relationship is over, Mr. Hayes
00:43:45You're no longer welcome at Reed Records
00:43:47I just came to pick up my equipment
00:43:51Casey's wrong about me
00:43:52I never gave up on us
00:43:54She's got another truth
00:43:56I don't think there's anything left to talk about, Dax
00:44:06Fine
00:44:08Let'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
00:44:28Not anymore
00:44:30I'm your former boss now
00:44:32In fact, here are your termination letters
00:44:39I don't give a fuck
00:44:40About the contract
00:44:41I don't give a shit about my career
00:44:43I just want you
00:44:44And I know that you want me too
00:44:47Don't act like you've forgotten
00:44:50What we had
00:44:52I've been trying to
00:44:54But being this close again
00:44:56It feels
00:44:58Impossible
00:44:59You're a lot like an instrument
00:45:02But you tremble every time we touch
00:45:10I don't care
00:45:10About the fans
00:45:12I don't give a shit about the tabloids
00:45:13I don't care what the record labels have to say
00:45:15If you tell me
00:45:16That you want to be with me
00:45:19We'll be together
00:45:25We can tease each other over
00:45:28Until you finally admit
00:45:30That you
00:45:32Still
00:45:32Love me
00:45:56You're right
00:45:58I am like an instrument
00:45:59The way I let you play me
00:46:02After what you did
00:46:03Why would I trust you ever again?
00:46:05Listen to me
00:46:06I've been trying to tell you
00:46:08I do not want to be with Scarlet
00:46:10Hello?
00:46:12Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way
00:46:13Thank you
00:46:15Whoa, whoa, whoa
00:46:15Hold on
00:46:16Sasha Silver?
00:46:17I've been telling you for months
00:46:18The guy's a douchebag
00:46:21A douchebag with over a hundred million strings
00:46:24I mean, we have a Dexter Hay size hole to fill
00:46:27And he could be the next big thing
00:46:28It's not safe
00:46:29Casey, you don't need him
00:46:31He'll hurt you
00:46:32No, no, no, no, no
00:46:33I don't think you, of all people
00:46:35Get to tell me what I need
00:46:37Casey
00:46:38Casey
00:46:39Casey
00:46:42Daisy has every right
00:46:43To be angry with me
00:46:44After what I did
00:46:45I have to prove
00:46:46She can trust me again
00:46:59Perfect timing
00:47:00Make yourself comfortable
00:47:01Thank you for meeting me
00:47:02On such short notice
00:47:03Sasha generally doesn't like
00:47:05Women who speak too much
00:47:07I've made an exception for you
00:47:09Do you always refer to yourself in the third person?
00:47:12I don't know what that means
00:47:14But
00:47:16You want to hear one of Sasha's demos?
00:47:18They're a big hit online
00:47:19I'm very excited about a potential partnership
00:47:22Well
00:47:23I heard you'd be blown away
00:47:26Actually
00:47:27I was hoping for a live performance if you don't mind
00:47:29So many musicians out there faking their music with AI, you know
00:47:33Of course
00:47:35But
00:47:36You're not in a hurry
00:47:37Why don't we toast first
00:47:39To this potential partnership?
00:47:57Shall we?
00:47:58How can I resist?
00:48:00I do love straight vodka
00:48:08But you know what I
00:48:11Actually
00:48:12Love even more than that?
00:48:15What's that?
00:48:17Exposing
00:48:18Asshole pervs
00:48:19My hair
00:48:20What the fuck?
00:48:22You really think you can drug me?
00:48:24And then what?
00:48:25Force me to sign you to read records?
00:48:28Now you know who you're dealing with
00:48:31Not so fast
00:48:32You thought you could just walk in here and demand a live performance from thee, Sasha Silver?
00:48:37Do I look like a little bitch to you?
00:48:39Absolutely
00:48:40And a fraud
00:48:43I'll be sure no label will ever sign you
00:48:46No matter how talented you are
00:48:49I want me to be able to sign me
00:48:51Not when I get read records
00:48:53Or myself
00:48:56I'm just hoping you get ready
00:48:59The paparazzi will be here any minute
00:49:00To see my new mistress
00:49:02He'll plaster our photos
00:49:03All over the tabloids
00:49:05Everyone will see what a slut you are
00:49:07How you slept your way to the top
00:49:10Your poor father
00:49:11He's gonna have no choice
00:49:13But to hand you and your company over to me
00:49:16You're delusional
00:49:17Stay away from me
00:49:19I'm fine
00:49:20You don't tell Sasha
00:49:21Hey!
00:49:23Get your fucking hands off
00:49:24What?
00:49:26I'll break your fucking hands
00:49:28Extra hands
00:49:29Are you okay?
00:49:31I'm fine
00:49:36What the fuck, Hayes?
00:49:38I could sue you for that
00:49:40I'd love to see you try, sweetheart
00:49:42You're just a wash-up addict
00:49:44And you do not have a leg to stand on
00:49:46Okay?
00:49:51Okay, I'm sorry
00:49:53Jesus
00:49:54We could have produced a sick-ass record together
00:49:56If you hadn't wanted to defend this used-up slut
00:49:59I mean, what the fuck?
00:50:03Her name
00:50:04Is Casey Wee
00:50:06And she's the future
00:50:07Of the industry
00:50:08That you want so badly
00:50:09Fucking in!
00:50:11Your career is dead
00:50:12Sasha
00:50:13I'm not sure of that
00:50:16Let's go
00:50:24Let's go
00:50:28Give me your hand
00:50:36Casey, I've been telling you for months
00:50:38Sasha Silver is little-
00:50:39My business
00:50:40Is none of your concern
00:50:41If I didn't show up tonight
00:50:43What the hell do you think would have happened?
00:50:45Do you have any idea what he could have done to you?
00:50:47He could have raped you
00:50:48Yes!
00:50:48He could have done-
00:50:48Okay!
00:50:49I know!
00:50:51Newsflash!
00:50:51I'm not your assistant
00:50:54Anymore
00:50:54So, it's not your concern
00:50:56Where I am
00:50:57Or what I'm doing
00:50:58Okay?
00:50:59So stop
00:51:01Following me
00:51:06The car is still fucking moving
00:51:09Stop following you
00:51:10The minute that you
00:51:12Stop making stupid
00:51:13Fucking decisions
00:51:16And when I've made up for all the danger I've put her in
00:51:21You're way
00:51:23Too interested in my personal life, Dex
00:51:27Won't your fiancé be jealous?
00:51:33I've been trying to tell you for weeks
00:51:36I did not
00:51:37Want to marry
00:51:39Scarlet
00:51:41You don't fucking listen
00:51:42Now you're really starting to piss me off
00:51:45Isn't that the point?
00:51:48I'm not going to be
00:51:49I'm not going to be
00:51:54I'm not going to be
00:51:55I'm not going to be
00:51:58What am I supposed to do?
00:52:00Pretend she doesn't exist
00:52:03And be the pop star's secret side piece again
00:52:09I should push him away
00:52:11But I can't deny how much I miss his touch
00:52:14You were never the side piece
00:52:17And you know it
00:52:28Boss, I have news
00:52:31Thank you for your help today
00:52:33Dexter
00:52:36Please
00:52:36Stop following me
00:52:41Or else it's going to get harder and harder to walk away
00:52:53Great timing
00:52:55As always
00:52:56Why are you even here?
00:52:58Done what you asked
00:52:59News of Sasha Silver's fraudulence and drug abuse have been leaked to the press
00:53:02No label, studio, or brand will go anywhere near him
00:53:05His net worth plummeted to zero
00:53:07Good
00:53:09Buy all the rights to his music
00:53:12I'm going to give that to Casey as a gift
00:53:19I heard what happened with Sasha
00:53:21Now that was way too risky, Casey
00:53:23Look, I'm far from Dexter's biggest fan
00:53:25But that could have gotten real ugly if he hadn't shown up
00:53:28I could have handled Sasha
00:53:29There was also a huge leak in the press
00:53:32All of Sasha Silver's dirty laundry aired out for everyone to see
00:53:36He's been, uh, what do you kids call it?
00:53:38Cancelled
00:53:38Who took him down?
00:53:41Dexter Hayes
00:53:47He even bought the rights to Sasha's music
00:53:49He can't sing anything anywhere
00:53:52Or get sued to hell and back
00:53:54Dex took down Sasha Silver?
00:53:56For me?
00:53:57Maybe
00:53:58Maybe
00:53:58He's not as bad as I thought
00:54:00Or maybe he should stop interfering himself with my life
00:54:08The world famous music producer Echo
00:54:10Is set to finally reveal their identity
00:54:13At the legendary Universal Music Awards tomorrow night
00:54:17Scarlet's getting desperate
00:54:18She's trying to convince the world she's Echo
00:54:21Before it can expose her lies
00:54:22She can't keep up the act forever
00:54:24Sooner or later Dexter will realize she can't even hold a tune
00:54:28Much less produce a hit track
00:54:30Scarlet is nothing if she's not Echo
00:54:33She knows Dexter wouldn't look at her twice
00:54:35Let alone marry her
00:54:37If she wasn't pretending to be a genius producer
00:54:39I don't know how she thinks she's gonna get away with it
00:54:43I think it's time
00:54:45The world finds out who the real Echo is
00:54:51You want to go to the UMAs as Echo?
00:54:54They've invited me every year and I've always refused
00:54:57I've let this scam go on long enough
00:54:59It's time the world finds out the truth about Scarlet Heart
00:55:02The world?
00:55:04Or Dexter?
00:55:08This isn't about him
00:55:11He made his bed when he proposed to Scarlet
00:55:13Well my daughter deserves all the recognition of the world
00:55:17But if you're gonna go as Echo
00:55:19Oh you're gonna do it right
00:55:21With the best equipment money can buy
00:55:24Huh?
00:55:26I want people to see my princess
00:55:28For the queen that she is
00:55:33You're the best dad
00:55:48Mrs. Hayes
00:55:49It's so good to see you again
00:55:53How's Dexter?
00:55:55Engaged
00:55:56Yes
00:55:57My future daughter-in-law is performing at the Universal Music Awards tomorrow
00:56:02And I'd like to gift her something to mark the occasion
00:56:05So none of these mass-produced guitars
00:56:08She's a musical genius
00:56:10We need something one of a kind just like her
00:56:13Of course
00:56:14I have the perfect gift for her
00:56:16A custom Fender Signature Stratocaster
00:56:24Please don't touch that
00:56:26Those instruments are only for our VIP clientele
00:56:30Ugh
00:56:30It's you
00:56:32Get this career-sabotaging stalker out of here
00:56:36Excuse me?
00:56:38You're disturbing our VIP customers
00:56:40I have to ask you to leave
00:56:42Now
00:56:47I'm the CEO of Reed Records
00:56:51I have just as much of a right to be here as you
00:56:54Because of your Nepo baby connections
00:56:56We all know money can't buy talent
00:56:59Tell that to Scarlett
00:57:01Excuse me?
00:57:03I am Dexter Hayes' fiancé and creative collaborator
00:57:07And you don't really know anything about music
00:57:09Yeah
00:57:11You're right
00:57:12In that case
00:57:14You should have this
00:57:23No!
00:57:27Oh my god!
00:57:29What?
00:57:34Oops
00:57:35Slipped out of my hands
00:57:37My bad
00:57:39Are you insane?
00:57:41You just destroyed a million dollar guitar
00:57:43Security!
00:57:45Take this woman away!
00:57:47Hold on just one second
00:57:49To Dexter Hayes
00:57:50Oh my god
00:57:53Uh, I need to speak to the owner about an offer
00:57:56You think you can set that up for me?
00:57:57Yes, of course Mr. Hayes
00:57:58Okay
00:58:01Just kidding
00:58:04It's all yours now
00:58:13Scarlett, ignore this wannabe musician
00:58:17We'll find a better option
00:58:24Like this one
00:58:26Beyonce used this on her last album
00:58:29This instrument is worthy of Echo
00:58:32The genius producer
00:58:34Hey, hey, hey, hey
00:58:36Actually, actually
00:58:38This guitar is no longer available
00:58:40In fact, my entire collection is on hold for the new owner
00:58:45I'm gonna just
00:58:48My apologies, my apologies
00:58:51No, no, no, no, no, no
00:58:52We saw it first
00:58:53Look, look
00:58:55We just want the one guitar
00:58:56I'm sure we can come to a generous agreement
00:58:58You can pay all you want for the guitar
00:59:00But it's not gonna stop Scarlett from choking on the stage
00:59:08How dare you, you little bitch
00:59:17That's enough
00:59:20Hi, Dexie
00:59:24Are you okay?
00:59:26Dexter, she just insulted your Beyonce
00:59:29You need to do something
00:59:31Mom, do you really want to have a conversation right here and now
00:59:35About the current status of my engagement?
00:59:38Scarlett's talent as a producer
00:59:39Is the reason you're as famous as you are, Dexter
00:59:43The least you could do is show her a little respect
00:59:48You know what, actually
00:59:49I'm sorry, you're right
00:59:51I should show respect to the one person who's always been there for me
00:59:58Please ring up the guitar for Miss Hunt
01:00:00I knew you would support me
01:00:01Mr. Hayes, it's not for sale
01:00:04You know, why don't you ask the new owner
01:00:07How much it costs
01:00:08And I'll pay it
01:00:08Whatever it is
01:00:09Right here and now
01:00:11Miss Reed
01:00:12As the new owner of the store
01:00:14How much would you like to charge the guitar for?
01:00:17Wait, what?
01:00:21I'm sorry
01:00:22I'm the new owner?
01:00:25Consider a late birthday gift
01:00:27For my former assistant
01:00:29You did this for me
01:00:31You really think I need a music store?
01:00:34Well, as CEO of Reed Records, you probably don't know
01:00:37But I'm someone who cares about you a lot
01:00:40Why the hell not?
01:00:42Dexter!
01:00:43Are you insane?
01:00:45She's not even a real musician
01:00:47And you gave her the entire store?
01:00:50You're gonna make us pay her for a guitar?
01:00:54Oh, it's okay
01:00:56Scarlett could have it for free
01:00:57As long as she shows us the big hit
01:00:59That she's working on
01:01:02Casey
01:01:04I am not stooping to your level
01:01:06And besides
01:01:07We're late for hair and makeup
01:01:09I will talk to you about this later
01:01:13You will regret this
01:01:15Casey has done nothing but ruin you
01:01:18She's just a pretty face
01:01:20With no talent to back it up
01:01:22Thanks, Mom
01:01:29I'm not your assistant anymore
01:01:31It's Miss Reed
01:01:32And I'm the CEO of Reed Records
01:01:34Two
01:01:36My birthday was months ago
01:01:38Actually, the night that you proposed to Scarlett
01:01:41So your gift means nothing
01:01:45Did you know I was actually gonna tell you my secret that night?
01:01:48What's the secret?
01:01:52Secret?
01:01:53What are you talking about?
01:01:54What's the secret?
01:01:58Should I tell him the truth?
01:02:00No
01:02:01That I wanted to spend every single day of the rest of my life with you
01:02:08But not anymore
01:02:11I don't need you
01:02:22Don't pay attention to anything she just said
01:02:24Yeah
01:02:24I want you to get the best equipment and the best instruments
01:02:26To her collection
01:02:28Yes, sir
01:02:31Oh, one more thing
01:02:33She's fired
01:02:36Yes, sir
01:02:37Thank you
01:02:40But, Dexter, you can't do this
01:02:41I love you
01:02:48Mr. Hayes
01:02:56Ms. Hart
01:02:57You're on in five
01:02:57The broadcast will begin live
01:02:59Thank you
01:03:02Did you hear that?
01:03:03Millions of fans are gonna be hearing your song
01:03:06It's exactly what you deserve
01:03:07The world needs to hear your talent
01:03:11I can't believe I'm about to perform on the Universal Music Awards stage
01:03:16All right, guys, it's time
01:03:17Let's go
01:03:19Scarlet!
01:03:33You can't start the show without me
01:03:39I knew you'd make it
01:03:40Of course she did
01:03:41Her daddy probably got her a ticket after she cried about being left out
01:03:45Dexter, Scarlet
01:03:46You know, I'm actually surprised you showed up
01:03:49I thought it would be too painful for you to witness people with actual talent perform when you yourself have
01:03:56none
01:03:56Mmm
01:03:57I'm getting a lecture about talent from you
01:04:01Guess we'll see who's real and who's fake tonight
01:04:04Wake a leg, Scarlet
01:04:07Or should I say, Echo
01:04:10Don't choke
01:04:13Hope you don't choke
01:04:35The playback's down
01:04:37The track's gone completely white
01:04:40You have another version of the track, right?
01:04:45I didn't even make that version
01:04:47I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me on to her reject tracks
01:04:50Go fix this
01:04:51Now
01:04:54This is bad
01:04:55All right, everyone's just out there staring at us
01:04:57We're gonna burn the broadcast
01:04:59And the label's gonna drop us
01:05:01What are we gonna do?
01:05:03I have an idea
01:05:05You're Echo, right?
01:05:18Yes, it's true
01:05:20I'm Echo
01:05:21The award-winning producer and Dexter Hayes' long-time mystery collaborator
01:05:27Then prove it
01:05:28Go ahead
01:05:29Why 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
01:05:37This 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
01:05:46I must have another file I can play
01:05:48I'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
01:06:14Show must go on
01:06:16Nice try
01:06:17Scarlet's proven herself enough
01:06:20You can stop with the jealous witch hunt now
01:06:23Okay, can you boost the treble on the EQ in the middle
01:06:26And can you pan from stage left to stage right real quick?
01:06:31Yeah
01:06:38Damn, I guess you're gonna have to do it the old-fashioned way
01:06:42That means recording the instruments live, looping them
01:06:45Don't listen to her
01:06:46She doesn't know what it takes to make a track of my caliber
01:06:49And this isn't the first time one of Dexter's tracks have been corrupted
01:06:53If I didn't know any better
01:06:55I think you were trying to sabotage it
01:06:57Scarlet, Scarlet
01:06:58Why would Casey do that?
01:07:00For real, okay?
01:07:01You're Echo, okay?
01:07:03So, just fix the track
01:07:06Yeah
01:07:06Come on, Echo
01:07:08What, you have performance anxiety?
01:07:18Scarlet, you are our only hope now
01:07:21You have to fix this
01:07:23I could
01:07:23If I had something other than this shoddy
01:07:26Breed Records music equipment to work with
01:07:28Casey, if you're such a genius, why don't you fix it?
01:07:32Oh, I actually would, gladly
01:07:34But, it's actually your big night
01:07:36So, why don't you show everyone the brilliant Echo
01:07:38And how you made Dexter Hayes a superstar
01:07:41Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo!
01:07:47Just your Echo, okay?
01:07:49Record some mini instruments
01:07:50Lay them down
01:07:51Make a track
01:07:52It's that simple
01:07:52You know how to do this
01:07:54You 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
01:08:02Casey shouldn't even be here
01:08:04I can't let her expose me
01:08:06Not when I'm so close to marrying Dexter
01:08:08And becoming a pop legend
01:08:32Is this part of her process?
01:08:33It would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music
01:08:57Oh my god, is Scarlet Heart tone deaf?
01:09:01Come on Echo, show them your talent, keep going
01:09:04Get off the stage
01:09:06You're ruining the UMAs
01:09:10Alright, look
01:09:13It'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
01:09:21That whole career
01:09:23That whole career
01:09:23That I fought for for however, how many years?
01:09:25Yeah
01:09:29Because you know what?
01:09:31Someone that I was close to once told me
01:09:34That there's a lot more to life than just your career
01:09:37And who knows, maybe I can get a cool new gig
01:09:40As a personal assistant for the new CEO of Reed Records
01:09:45Dexter, stop it with those awful jokes
01:09:48Your entire life's work is on the line
01:09:51Mom
01:09:52You heard the track, okay?
01:09:54There's no saving the song
01:09:55Now it's over
01:09:56It's over
01:10:11Well
01:10:12I guess it's time for the next act of this show
01:10:16No, no
01:10:17There's no, there's, there's no other
01:10:19Hey
01:10:20It's time to let a real musician take the stage
01:10:30What the hell do you think you're doing?
01:10:32Mom, mom, stop
01:10:35You heard of Scarlet?
01:10:37I mean, you can stay unless you want to go down as the worst performer in UMA history
01:10:42If 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?
01:10:55Happily
01:10:59Everyone, 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
01:11:08Since we're live, let's make something new
01:11:11Dexter, sing me the first line of your song, just your voice
01:11:15Right now
01:11:16Right now
01:11:23I am not the kind for a show
01:11:30This is not a one-time thing
01:11:34Lights are low, but I still will
01:11:38This morning's got a sting
01:11:42Good
01:11:46Now let's make a hit
01:11:55Let's fucking go
01:11:57Wait, what is she doing?
01:12:15I mean, you produced this, right?
01:12:17So do you want to go ahead and take over?
01:12:19I can't, I don't have but
01:12:21You don't need anything except for a band and raw talent
01:12:25I mean, you are a musician, right?
01:12:31Since when is Casey Reed a musical genius?
01:12:33That sound, it's familiar
01:12:36I mean, you are not the kind for a show
01:12:41This is not a one-time thing
01:12:44Stop! Stop it!
01:12:59Casey, you're Echo
01:13:01Does 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?
01:13:10Don't listen to her!
01:13:13I'm Echo!
01:13:16I didn't even make that version
01:13:18I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me one of her reject tracks
01:13:21Go fix this
01:13:26Now everyone knows the truth
01:13:32She'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
01:13:38I had to mix the track live, Dexter
01:13:41So that makes it my intellectual property
01:13:44You're welcome to put it on your next album
01:13:46But you're gonna have to pay me for it
01:13:48Where 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
01:13:57$200 million for one song?
01:14:01That's more than our entire album deal
01:14:03Are you insane?
01:14:04And I want my name to be credited
01:14:08Bad deal, Miss Reed
01:14:11And one last thing
01:14:12I want a public apology from Scarlet Heart and Amelia Hayes
01:14:18That's ridiculous!
01:14:19Why should we apologize to you?
01:14:21I mean, you don't have to
01:14:22I could just go ahead and leave
01:14:23And then Scarlet could finish the album
01:14:25And Dexter's career could crash and burn
01:14:27So
01:14:29What will it be?
01:14:35The clock is ticking
01:14:38I was wrong about you
01:14:40You saved Dexter's song
01:14:43I'm sorry
01:14:47And you?
01:14:48Do it
01:14:50Apologize to her
01:14:51That bitch!
01:14:52Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:14:54She ruined everything!
01:14:56Come on, let's hear it
01:14:57Tell the world the truth
01:14:58Scarlet
01:15:00Come on, let's hear it
01:15:00I'm not Echo
01:15:02I pretended
01:15:03And I never wrote or produced any of Dexter's songs
01:15:06They are happy?
01:15:10I was wrong about you
01:15:12You saved Dexter's song
01:15:15I'm sorry
01:15:19And you?
01:15:21Do it
01:15:22Apologize to her
01:15:23That bitch!
01:15:25Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:15:27She ruined everything
01:15:28Come on, let's hear it
01:15:29Tell the world the truth
01:15:31Scarlet
01:15:32Fine!
01:15:33I'm not Echo
01:15:34I pretended
01:15:35And I never wrote or produced any of Dexter's songs
01:15:38They are happy?
01:15:41They are happy?
01:15:44Wait
01:15:45That's not what I really meant
01:15:47Dexter
01:15:49She manipulated me
01:15:51You're still my fiance
01:15:51You believe
01:15:52Scarlet, you are exactly what we all see
01:15:55You fucking bought and you're a damn liar
01:15:59Casey is the one who built my career
01:16:01Hell, she's the one who saved the damn song
01:16:04She's the only one who ever cared about me
01:16:07Or loved me
01:16:10Our engagement is off
01:16:11And so is the record
01:16:35Please don't cancel the album
01:16:37The album
01:16:38Terminating your contract
01:16:40And blackness you from the industry
01:16:41Two years old
01:16:48You got yourself a deal case
01:16:58Hit it
01:17:04If we're not here for long
01:17:09Tell me where would we belong
01:17:14My back is passed against the wall
01:17:20I need you to know
01:17:23I need you to know
01:17:23I'm not afraid to fall
01:17:26Your name's on fire
01:17:29In my veins
01:17:32It's burning from my chains
01:17:37Who are you to know
01:17:40Who are you to tell me why
01:17:43Who am I to look like
01:17:48This mirror shows a thousand places
01:17:51But none of us
01:17:54But none of them can burn
01:18:11But none of them can burn
01:18:39You can ever tell me where pool
01:18:39You got люб of people
01:18:40You got selber
01:18:45I know
01:18:45He can only prove
01:18:45That's when appeals
01:18:46I know
01:18:46I know
01:18:46I know
01:18:46I know
01:18:46I know
01:18:46You can only access the
01:18:50It's good man
01:18:51The whole world wants to know, are you the award-winning genius music producer, Echo?
01:18:56I 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.
01:19:08You arrogant fucking whore! You ruined everything!
01:19:15Dexter was going to be mine! I was going to be the biggest pop star in the world!
01:19:29But you had to get in my way.
01:19:34That won't happen again.
01:19:36Hey, say!
01:19:37Dex, no!
01:19:38No!
01:19:49Dex! Dex, stay with me!
01:19:56Hey, hey, hey. You've been here all night. You still love her, don't you?
01:20:04Dexter saved my life, but as soon as I thank him, we can move on.
01:20:10You know, if you say so, but have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to
01:20:16save you?
01:20:16It doesn't matter now.
01:20:19Things will never return back to how they were before.
01:20:23Casey, Dexter was an absolute idiot for betraying you, okay?
01:20:28But 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. Your love.
01:20:39Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it. I mean, a love like that burns bright, but it doesn't last forever.
01:20:47Clearly, Dexter never stopped caring about you. Hmm? Maybe your love story isn't over.
01:20:53The 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.
01:21:07Dexter is sleeping, but you can see him now.
01:21:15Don't be afraid to tell him how you feel, princess.
01:21:35It was a close call.
01:21:37One centimeter to the right. He could have punctured his lung.
01:21:40If Dex couldn't sing anymore, his life might as well be over.
01:21:44Oh, hopefully. He'll recover. But for now, all he needs is rest.
01:21:50That'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.
01:22:11Never.
01:22:15Why?
01:22:21My God, you're beautiful.
01:22:26Why are you still mad at me?
01:22:29I think I have every right to be.
01:22:35Casey, I...
01:22:40I miss you.
01:22:42I miss him too, but everything we've put each other through, can we really be together again?
01:22:49You saved my life, and I will be forever grateful.
01:22:58And in return, I'll give you your song for free, and 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?
01:23:10To walk away from all this forever?
01:23:20There's something I have to show you, something I've been trying to show you.
01:23:36That horrible night when I chose Scarlet, I only did it because I had to.
01:23:43They forced you to choose her.
01:23:45I was trying to save your life, okay?
01:23:47I would never, ever, ever do that to you.
01:23:51I'd choose you a million times over, and I knew that I'd break your heart, and I knew that I
01:23:55would
01:23:56lose 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.
01:24:13Me neither.
01:24:18You're my little muse.
01:24:22My pop star.
01:24:28Which reminds me.
01:24:32Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline The Wildlife Festival.
01:24:38The Wildlife Festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:43You saved their CEO.
01:24:44You deserve it.
01:24:45You're the reason I sing.
01:24:47You'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.
01:24:54You're my world, Casey.
01:24:57I know I've written a lot of songs, okay?
01:24:59I 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.
01:25:10I'd give it up in a second if it meant just being with you.
01:25:14It's all I need.
01:25:17We do it together.
01:25:22I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes.
01:25:26Okay.
01:25:29I want us to do this together.
01:25:33I love you.
01:25:36I love you, too.
01:25:50It's the biggest cry I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:54Then you better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:59Yes, ma'am.
01:26:01Yes, ma'am.
01:26:09I wrote this song with Casey Reed, who is my echo.
01:26:14But more importantly, she is undoubtedly the love of my life.
01:26:20So, I hope you enjoy.
01:26:44Just let it go.
01:26:47It will be time I remember to smile, I imagine a world where we can love.
01:26:57I love you.
01:26:59I love you.
01:27:01I love you.
01:27:01I love you.
01:27:06This goes on
01:27:10The stuff in the stockings
01:27:13But I am still walking
01:27:15But all we do
01:27:19Was the fool who I hated
01:27:22Now I'm recreated
01:27:25Every time I look at the moonfall
01:27:30I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:27:33But soon you'll see
01:27:38That it's time for you and me
01:27:43Cause the best so far
01:27:48We just let off
01:27:53Every time I look in your eyes
01:27:58I forget where I am
01:28:00Just let off
01:28:02Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:07I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:11Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:16I'm taking and talking
01:28:19But I will be walking
01:28:22Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:26In the mirror in heaven
01:28:29My heart is still breathing
01:28:31Every time I remember to smile
01:28:36I imagine the world we're together
