00:00:17My name is Casey Reed.
00:00:19No one knows I'm the heiress of Reed Records, the billion-dollar music empire, where that
00:00:25I'm Echo, the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys.
00:00:28I chose to stay invisible, because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes,
00:00:35the rock star I secretly built from the ground up.
00:00:38I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter.
00:00:43We share the same music, but never the same spotlight.
00:00:48Will you spit in my mouth?
00:01:00Dex, we're backstage, someone might see us.
00:01:05I am so done hiding you.
00:01:09I have no idea what you do to me, Casey.
00:01:11How you make me feel.
00:01:12You are my favorite song.
00:01:20I lose control.
00:01:22My little moon.
00:01:26I want you, Dex.
00:01:29I need you.
00:01:33Good.
00:01:36Because you're already mine.
00:01:40I'm going to call you on that stage tonight.
00:01:42I'm going to sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:01:45I'm going to kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:47I'm going to claim every inch of you.
00:01:50Note by note.
00:01:52In front of the whole world.
00:02:09Hey, Casey, um, what's with all the secret phone calls?
00:02:13Just, what are you hiding?
00:02:16Nothing, it's just work stuff.
00:02:19Okay.
00:02:21It's time I come clean, too.
00:02:23Once he finishes this concert, the Echo mask will come off.
00:02:27And I can finally be the real me.
00:02:30His Echo and his Casey.
00:02:35You are going to be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:50I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:04I can't wait to make me my wife.
00:03:10I am.
00:03:10I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:15I need champagne to space
00:03:24And now, for the star of our show,
00:03:28the world's hottest pop star,
00:03:31and my soulmate, Dexter Hayes!
00:03:37Wait for me, right here?
00:03:42Dexter Hayes is my ticket to the top of the charts,
00:03:45but I'll never lock him down as long as he's in bed with his grumpy assistant.
00:03:50A lot of applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody!
00:03:56Fans already love us.
00:03:57Dexter Hayes, you will be mine.
00:04:01Scarlet Heart.
00:04:03Dexter Hayes' groupie turned wannabe pop queen.
00:04:05She's always throwing herself at my boyfriend.
00:04:08Maybe once he puts a ring on it tonight,
00:04:10she'll finally take the hint.
00:04:13I've got a really special one for y'all tonight.
00:04:16Hope you enjoy.
00:04:26Shit!
00:04:27The backing mix is corrupted!
00:04:29I can't let Dex's show get ruined!
00:04:32Echo can fix this!
00:04:36Are you here?
00:04:37I need your help.
00:04:40What the hell is she up to?
00:04:45Well, I guess the, uh, system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes, so...
00:04:50I'll be right back.
00:04:55There.
00:04:56Your gear from the studio!
00:04:58Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:05:00Dad!
00:05:00We've talked about this.
00:05:02In public, I am not your daughter.
00:05:04And I'm not Echo.
00:05:05But Dexter should know how hard you've worked for him.
00:05:08You made him the star he is.
00:05:11I'm telling him tonight.
00:05:13But for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:16Oh, that's my girl.
00:05:17Thanks.
00:05:20When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms.
00:05:43Oh, my God.
00:05:44These are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs.
00:05:47Is Casey... Echo?
00:05:58Time to save Dex's concert.
00:06:00Play that song!
00:06:01Play that song!
00:06:03God, where's Casey?
00:06:04She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:06The show is a disaster.
00:06:07The fans are waiting.
00:06:08Can you please find her?
00:06:09I need her.
00:06:09No, Dexter.
00:06:12I'm the one you need.
00:06:13What?
00:06:22Mrs. Echo's not?
00:06:26Are you her?
00:06:28Are you her?
00:06:33Listen, can you please save this song?
00:06:36I already did.
00:06:40Wait.
00:06:42Dexter, there's one more thing I should probably show you.
00:06:47Casey has been hiding another man.
00:06:55All those secret phone calls, dodged questions.
00:06:58Casey was cheating on me this whole time.
00:07:02Dexter, I'm so sorry.
00:07:04I would never, never do this to you.
00:07:08Thanks.
00:07:17I'll be back.
00:07:18Didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:07:20Ah.
00:07:21And we're back.
00:07:22Well, I wrote this song for the love of my life.
00:07:27At least I thought so.
00:07:37Get ready, Dex.
00:07:38The next big single is coming to you in 3, 2, 1.
00:08:05Every time when I look, I remember the time I saw you write.
00:08:11One thing to remember you buy, the time I looked into your eye.
00:08:17The secret feel in the gate, I know I was running out of time.
00:08:34The secret feel in the gate, I know I was running out of time.
00:08:40The secret feel, I was running out of time.
00:08:46The secret feel, I was running out of time.
00:09:12How could Casey do this to me?
00:09:19Everyone, give it up for Dexter Hay!
00:09:33He promised he'd call me up on stage to announce our relationship.
00:09:38I loved her, and she betrayed me.
00:09:52Oh my god! Dexie!
00:09:55Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:58Yes!
00:10:03Oh my god! Dexie!
00:10:06Yes!
00:10:08Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together.
00:10:12I thought Dexter loved me, trusted me.
00:10:17No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet, but she made my career and Casey betrayed me.
00:10:27It was all a lie.
00:10:30Alright, I can play along with his engagement, and I can move on from the woman who broke my heart.
00:10:38What?
00:10:44Hey, uh, Casey.
00:10:56You promised me that you'd tell the world about us tonight, but instead you propose and put a ring on
00:11:07Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:09Casey, you gave me no choice.
00:11:12I gave you everything.
00:11:16I loved you. Do you love her?
00:11:19I owe her, okay? I owe her, alright?
00:11:23I don't-
00:11:24You owe her?
00:11:26Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plan.
00:11:30What has she ever done for you?
00:11:32Scarlet produced my career.
00:11:34She made me who I am today.
00:11:36Okay, so that's why.
00:11:38What are you talking about?
00:11:42Scarlet is Echo.
00:11:50You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:54Well, I know she is.
00:11:56You know what? I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done for me.
00:12:01And I feel like this is a good start.
00:12:05How could you believe her lies?
00:12:06Come on, all you do is lie.
00:12:11You know, I don't even know who you are anymore.
00:12:15Is this what you wanted all along?
00:12:17To be a music industry power couple?
00:12:21To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:24He could have had that with me.
00:12:27This is all you ever really cared about.
00:12:30Isn't it?
00:12:33Not loyalty.
00:12:34Just your music.
00:12:38What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:43This is my notebook.
00:12:46Full of songs that I wrote for Dexter's first triple platinum album.
00:12:51That's my notebook.
00:12:52How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:54I'm a musical genius.
00:12:57And you're just Dexter's little errand girl.
00:13:01Keep it back.
00:13:02Dexter, she cut me.
00:13:04She what has gotten into you?
00:13:06I don't...
00:13:07I don't know who you are anymore.
00:13:09Dexy, baby.
00:13:11I know all about girls like her.
00:13:14They want fame and money without really ever having to work for it.
00:13:17She's taking advantage of you.
00:13:20She has been for years.
00:13:22Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this.
00:13:25Scarlet is not Echo.
00:13:26No.
00:13:27Then tell me why I shouldn't.
00:13:28Okay?
00:13:29Why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:33Go wait in the car.
00:13:35Please.
00:13:40Casey.
00:13:45Look, I know that you've been hiding things.
00:13:48So, please just...
00:13:50Just tell me the truth.
00:13:51Okay, right now.
00:13:52Or we'll lose us forever.
00:13:57Please.
00:14:11The truth doesn't matter anymore.
00:14:12You don't trust me anyway.
00:14:19We're over.
00:14:21Dex.
00:14:24Goodbye.
00:14:26Forever.
00:14:46The hottest rock star on the planet is officially off the market.
00:14:51Dexter Hayes popped the question to up and coming singer, Scarlet Hart tonight, and she said yes.
00:15:01Dad.
00:15:03I gave Dexter everything.
00:15:06I made his career, but...
00:15:08He doesn't want me.
00:15:09He never did.
00:15:11What happened, princess?
00:15:13Scarlet Hart.
00:15:14She stole him, and now she's trying to steal my identity.
00:15:18I'll come get you.
00:15:24Casey.
00:15:25Casey, where are you?
00:15:35It looks like Dexter's whore is awake.
00:15:38Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man.
00:15:43Who are you?
00:15:44Let me go.
00:15:46Don't worry, Scarlet.
00:15:47We won't hurt you.
00:15:49We're your friends, too.
00:15:50We've only shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Hart.
00:15:54We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson.
00:15:58We saw you kissing Dexter backstage.
00:16:02You're trying to steal him from his soulmate.
00:16:05I wasn't stealing him.
00:16:08We were in love.
00:16:09But...
00:16:10Or...
00:16:10I thought we were.
00:16:12We'll see about that, won't we?
00:16:14The only way you'll live tonight...
00:16:18Is if Dexter chooses to save you.
00:16:24Who the hell is everybody?
00:16:29Dressing room.
00:16:30Come alone.
00:16:32Choose to save Scarlet Hart, and we'll spare them.
00:16:35Choose your little assistant, and they both die.
00:16:40You've reached Casey.
00:16:41I can't come to the phone right now.
00:16:44Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:48Casey?
00:16:49So she never left a concert.
00:16:50Get back to the concert hall now.
00:16:53Dexter is coming.
00:16:56We'll see who his true love is.
00:16:58You psychos!
00:17:01Are you hoping that he chooses you over his fiancee?
00:17:06Obviously not.
00:17:07She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry.
00:17:11You fucked him too?
00:17:13God.
00:17:14Our precious Dexter.
00:17:17Soiled by a dirty star fucker.
00:17:19Girls like you don't deserve him.
00:17:22You don't deserve to live.
00:17:24No one knows what the real Echo looks like.
00:17:26So, if Casey dies, then the truth dies with her.
00:17:32That's not true!
00:17:33First you steal my identity, now you're trying to get me murdered?
00:17:37You're psychotic!
00:17:38Oh, don't worry, Casey.
00:17:40If you die today, Dex and I will make a song about you,
00:17:43and maybe it'll even be the lead single on our new album.
00:17:47You're crazier than they are.
00:17:49Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:55Missy!
00:17:56Dex!
00:18:02Dex!
00:18:04Missy!
00:18:04Dex! Dex!
00:18:06Dexter!
00:18:07Dexter, help me!
00:18:08They hit me, and then they tied me up,
00:18:11and now they're trying to kill me!
00:18:13Okay guys, let's...
00:18:15Let's just put the guns down, okay?
00:18:17We can't do that, Dexter. We're your biggest fans. We're doing this for you.
00:18:25Okay, well, if you love me, all right, you'll put the gun down and you'll let these two go, please.
00:18:30No, that's not how this works. Dexy, you would be nothing without Echo. We're engaged now. You can't let me
00:18:39die.
00:18:40Dex, all the love we ever had, all the memories, all the I love yous you told me, did they
00:18:46mean anything?
00:18:47You must choose one to live. Will it be your future wife? Or your mistress?
00:18:55Who really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:18:59They said if I don't choose Scarlet, then they both die. I can save Casey, but I have to break
00:19:05her heart.
00:19:07Which one really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:15You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:19And you loved him?
00:19:21You leeched off him for half a decade.
00:19:24If that's what you really think, Dex, go ahead. Make your choice.
00:19:28Choose now or they both die.
00:19:30Dexter. Dexter, please. Think of everything I've done for you.
00:19:34You dumped her. You chose me. Don't let them murder me.
00:19:39That's enough. We're pulling the trigger in three, two, one.
00:19:45Okay, okay, okay.
00:19:46I can't risk them killing Casey.
00:19:49Scarlet, all right? I choose Scarlet.
00:19:56Dexter, I'm gonna faint.
00:19:58I was so scared.
00:20:00He chose Scarlet?
00:20:02Good choice. Cheating whores deserve to die.
00:20:05Now, wait a minute. You told me that...
00:20:07You made your choice, Dexter Hayes.
00:20:10Now you get to be the one who saved your soulmate.
00:20:13And we'll take care of your scandalous side piece.
00:20:16No, no, no, no, no, no!
00:20:23I guess this is the end.
00:20:30Goodbye, Dexter.
00:20:33Put the gun down!
00:20:36Put the gun down!
00:20:37Goodbye, Dexter.
00:20:39Hey, drop the gun!
00:20:50Let's go. Let's go.
00:20:51Let's go.
00:20:52Okay.
00:20:52Oh, come on.
00:20:53Okay.
00:20:54All right.
00:20:56All right.
00:20:57All right.
00:21:00It's gonna be okay.
00:21:01Okay?
00:21:02You left me to die.
00:21:04And for the record, I never needed your money.
00:21:07I was right to walk away.
00:21:09Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made.
00:21:13Look, Casey, you don't understand, all right?
00:21:15They were gonna make me...
00:21:16I'm done living in your shadow, Dex.
00:21:21Goodbye.
00:21:27Casey, Casey.
00:21:28Casey, Casey.
00:21:28Hey.
00:21:36Casey.
00:21:37Casey, stop.
00:21:39Please, stop.
00:21:39Please, please.
00:21:40We're gonna go.
00:21:41Okay.
00:21:42What are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:43You should be asking yourself that same question.
00:21:47Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:21:49You're delusional.
00:21:51He doesn't need you.
00:21:52He has Echo.
00:21:54Yeah.
00:21:55Sure he does.
00:21:56Fame really has changed you, Dexter Hayes.
00:22:03Fame changed me?
00:22:05Okay.
00:22:07Then what about you?
00:22:08You're the one that's been sneaking around behind my back this whole time.
00:22:13I never betrayed you how you betrayed me by putting that ring on Scarlet's finger.
00:22:19You chose her and you left me for dead.
00:22:22No.
00:22:23Casey, you don't understand.
00:22:24I was trying to...
00:22:49Oh my God, that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records.
00:22:55So sorry I didn't come sooner, baby girl.
00:23:00You're here now.
00:23:01Take me home.
00:23:18I was trying to have everything you wanted.
00:23:22You were mine.
00:23:23I was trying to...
00:23:24I was trying to...
00:23:25Dexter Hayes.
00:23:26I was trying to...
00:23:32I was trying to...
00:23:33I was trying to have everything.
00:23:36Casey!
00:23:37Casey!
00:23:38Let me explain!
00:23:44Scarlet.
00:23:45Mrs. Hayes.
00:23:46You should have seen it.
00:23:47I almost died.
00:23:49And that desperate skank cheated on Dexter with some sugar daddy.
00:23:53I always knew she was a gold digger.
00:23:56She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:23:59Then when that failed, she went after the CEO of the biggest music label in the world.
00:24:04Dexter, she never cared about you.
00:24:07She's been lying to you this entire time.
00:24:09All she ever cared about was money and power.
00:24:12I thought Casey loved me.
00:24:14But the whole time, she was in bed with the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:23Forget him, Princess.
00:24:25You are much too talented to be running some rockstar's errands.
00:24:30How could I be so blind?
00:24:34Three days from now, at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala,
00:24:38announcing you as the new CEO of Reed Records,
00:24:42and my daughter, the heiress to my empire.
00:24:46It's time to show the world who you really are.
00:24:57My back is pressed.
00:25:05My back is pressed.
00:25:12No, no!
00:25:14Okay, guys, cut the track.
00:25:20The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:25:23Look, guys, we have one week, alright, to finish this song before the release.
00:25:28The Echo that I know can put together a perfect studio mix in hours.
00:25:33You can't even fix a simple beat or a key?
00:25:37What's going on?
00:25:39Look, Scarlett, I just gotta ask.
00:25:41Are you really Echo?
00:25:47Are you really Echo?
00:25:50Dexy, of course I am.
00:25:55It's just your new assistant.
00:25:58He's been messing.
00:25:59He's messing with my tracks.
00:26:01He's obviously trying to sabotage our new album.
00:26:03I mean, look, last saved by Max.
00:26:09Yeah, that's because you don't know how to-
00:26:11Okay, you know what?
00:26:12Echo would never put her name on garbage like this.
00:26:16Mr. Hayes, please, listen.
00:26:18It's Dexter.
00:26:20And I'm sorry, but, uh, my last assistant would've never screwed me over like that.
00:26:25You're fired.
00:26:33Let's do it again.
00:26:49Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:26:52Writing love songs used to be so easy with Casey here.
00:27:08We're sorry.
00:27:09You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:27:14Alright, she broke my heart and she moved on.
00:27:18So why can't I do the same?
00:27:38Look what we just got.
00:27:39An invitation to the biggest industry event of the year.
00:27:43The Reed Records Music Hall of Fame Gala.
00:27:52Look, I'm not interested. Okay, we have a song to finish.
00:27:56Dexter, you said it yourself. They can lay down a track in hours. We have to go. This is a
00:28:02personal invitation from Mr. Ed Reed himself.
00:28:06Okay, look. I know what you're thinking, but Casey probably meant nothing to him. He's a billionaire record executive. I'm
00:28:15sure he has a whole roster of scorned assistants lining up to get on their knees and work for a
00:28:20few extra bucks. You have to go and you have to impress him, okay? He could make or break our
00:28:25careers.
00:28:27Okay, I guess you're right.
00:28:29Of course I am. We are the industry's it couple. So now, forget about that stupid little assistant of yours
00:28:38and start getting ready. I mean, what was so special about her anyway? Her coarse tangled hair or her dull
00:28:49crusty skin or maybe those hideous god-awful clothes?
00:28:57I'm Echo. I'm the Reed heiress. And I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:29:12How does it feel to be at the event of the year as the industry's new it couple? We're honored.
00:29:18And with Reed Records on our side, our album is sure to be the number one hit of the decade.
00:29:22Are you excited to meet this mysterious new CEO of Reed Records?
00:29:27I hear Ed Reed is introducing the whole world to his daughter, the heiress to the Reed merchant. Do you
00:29:33think she's going to be the new CEO?
00:29:35I don't know. Who is this mysterious heiress? She is Ed Reed's daughter. I'll bet she'll be making a very
00:29:42splashy entrance.
00:29:43Whoever she is, we need to impress her, okay? She could be our ticket to a number one album. Look!
00:29:48Here she is now!
00:29:59No fucking way!
00:30:24Casey?
00:30:29Casey?
00:30:31Hey, Dex. Long time no see.
00:30:36Dex has already moved on with Scarlet. I should be happy walking away from him. So, why does my heart
00:30:44still ache?
00:31:00Ignore her. And instead, focus on kissing up to Ed Reed so he introduces us to the new CEO.
00:31:06You should listen to her, Dexter.
00:31:09All we need to do is get on their good side and our album will go straight to number one.
00:31:14She's right. I have to impress Ed Reed and this new CEO if I want our album to be a
00:31:20hit.
00:31:36You are a hit.
00:31:36Scarlet! What a terrible surprise.
00:31:39I should have known you'd sneak in here hunting for your next sugar daddy.
00:31:42But this party is for the elite of the music industry only.
00:31:46I suggest you wait on the street corner with the other hookers.
00:31:49But the party's just getting started.
00:31:51I can't miss the big announcement.
00:31:56Why?
00:31:57So you can seduce the new CEO of Reed Records 2?
00:32:01I hear he's much more selective than Ed Reed, so don't expect him to look at you twice.
00:32:06And don't distract Dexter tonight.
00:32:08Leave, or I will have security escort you out.
00:32:11I'd love to see you try.
00:32:16Jealous?
00:32:18I loved him, and those feelings don't just go away.
00:32:21How could she change his mind so easily?
00:32:25You can dress up all you want.
00:32:29But you will always just be Dexter's lowly little errant girl.
00:32:34I thought she was someone important.
00:32:36She's just a desperate assistant playing dress-up.
00:32:40Imagine getting dragged by the Scarlet Heart.
00:32:43I would never emotionally recover.
00:32:45Where do you think she got the jewels, though?
00:32:46Probably out whoring herself to old men.
00:32:49Just like all those desperate social climbers in our industry.
00:32:53Hmm.
00:32:54They got that right.
00:32:55Hmm.
00:32:55Is that so?
00:32:58Tell me something, Scarlet.
00:33:00Is it really me who's putting on an actor?
00:33:06Is it you?
00:33:09How dare you?
00:33:12Be careful.
00:33:13The new CEO might be watching.
00:33:16Yeah.
00:33:17You think you're hot shit just because you're the real Echo.
00:33:20You may have the talent, but you have no money and no connections besides the ones you make and pay
00:33:25by the hour hotel rooms.
00:33:26But me, I'm a beloved up-and-coming pop star.
00:33:30And if you so much as threaten me or my career ever again, I will get you cancered so fucking
00:33:36hard.
00:33:36Your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public.
00:33:41Mr. Reed, hi, Dexter Hayes.
00:33:43Thank you so much for the invite.
00:33:46You've always been a true hero of mine.
00:33:49Well, I would really love to put that, um, well, that incident with my assistant behind us.
00:33:56Oh, Dexter Hayes, of course I can.
00:33:58Got you.
00:34:00Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face when he realizes the assistant he rejected is my
00:34:05daughter.
00:34:06Yeah, the heiress to the Reed record's fortune.
00:34:09Well, you know, sir, um, well, you may or may not have heard about, uh, the record that Scarlet Heart
00:34:14and I are, uh, working on.
00:34:16I really think that between my lyrics and, well, her producing and your musical genius over the last many decades,
00:34:23I think we could really make something special.
00:34:25Well, you make a compelling point.
00:34:28And, you know, if it's not too much, it actually might be helpful for the record.
00:34:32Well, maybe if you could put in a good word with, uh, the new CEO, I, I, well, that would
00:34:37make me forever, forever grateful.
00:34:40Why don't you put in a good word yourself?
00:34:42The new CEO is already here.
00:34:56Casey.
00:34:57Casey.
00:34:58Casey.
00:34:59Casey.
00:35:00Casey.
00:35:02Uh, I've, I've been trying to call you the last few days, and, well, I guess I'm just surprised that
00:35:08instead you just showed up here.
00:35:10I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone, for wanting to hear his voice again.
00:35:16But after what he did to me, I couldn't give him the satisfaction.
00:35:21Oh, you've been calling me for the last few days.
00:35:24What, you missed me already?
00:35:25Did Ed Reed bring Casey as his date?
00:35:28This event is invite only.
00:35:34Yeah.
00:35:35Dang, I guess I left my invite at home, but I think I'm gonna stay.
00:35:40You know, Scarlet, on the other hand, though, has been throwing around nothing but vile slander and empty accusations all
00:35:47night.
00:35:47If anyone needs to go, it should be her.
00:35:50Unless you want me to expose your lies to Dexter right here, right now.
00:35:54Yeah, right.
00:35:55The only ones who can remove me are Mr. Reed himself or the new CEO.
00:36:00You have no power here.
00:36:02Okay, guys.
00:36:03Ed Reed and this new CEO are about to announce our new album.
00:36:08Can we have this conversation later?
00:36:10Aw, Dex.
00:36:12You forgot to say please.
00:36:17Wait, Casey, what, what?
00:36:23Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to announce tonight's special guest.
00:36:32Reed Records is the number one largest music label in the world.
00:36:37But tonight, I'm gonna introduce you to someone who's more precious to me than any company.
00:36:43Someone who grew up listening to me play piano, who has written hundreds of songs and never put her name
00:36:49on one of them.
00:36:51Because she never wanted to gain fame through mine.
00:36:55No more secrets, Dexter Hayes.
00:36:57It's time you finally learned who you really rejected.
00:37:02Mr. Reed is looking right at us.
00:37:04He's gonna call us on stage.
00:37:06All right, this is it.
00:37:07He's gonna announce that he's signed us to Reed Records.
00:37:10I want to introduce the heir to my billion-dollar music empire.
00:37:15And the new CEO of Reed Records.
00:37:18My princess.
00:37:21And the light of my life.
00:37:23My daughter.
00:37:24Casey Reed.
00:37:29What?
00:37:35No.
00:37:43Casey.
00:38:00That's the Reed heiress?
00:38:02Holy shit.
00:38:03She's not a sugar baby.
00:38:04She's the daughter of billionaire music royalty.
00:38:07Scarlet Heart is delusional.
00:38:10Insulting the new CEO of Reed Records to her face?
00:38:13She just committed career suicide.
00:38:16Mr. Reed, your gift.
00:38:17For the lady of the hour.
00:38:19Ugh.
00:38:20That's millions of dollars of gold.
00:38:23Dad.
00:38:24This is too much.
00:38:25There's something from the old man.
00:38:26And now Dexter will see that you're worth more than your weight in gold.
00:38:30This cannot be happening.
00:38:32She's a nobody.
00:38:35I knew Casey was keeping secrets from me, but I didn't know she was hiding who she was.
00:38:41Ed Reed was never her sugar daddy.
00:38:43He was her father.
00:38:44This whole time, she was with me for love, not fame.
00:38:48She tried to tell me the truth, and instead of trusting her, I left her for another woman.
00:38:53How could I be so blind?
00:39:02What suits you?
00:39:03Uh, the, um, guitar and, uh, CEO title.
00:39:08Why can't you just say you miss me?
00:39:11Casey, I, I, look, I just...
00:39:19I just...
00:39:24I still miss you.
00:39:34I'm there.
00:39:36Shouldn't you be licking your fiancĂŠ's wounds?
00:39:39Knowing she just insulted the CEO of the most powerful music company has got to hurt.
00:39:45But I mean, you of all people should know.
00:39:47Please, you have to believe me, okay?
00:39:49If you just let me explain, I promise...
00:39:51Explain what, Dexter?
00:39:52Why you want me back?
00:39:53After finding out I'm your boss?
00:39:57Or leaving me for Echo?
00:40:01No, no, look, that's, that's not why I'm here.
00:40:03If you just let me tell you, I, I...
00:40:06I mean, come on, Casey.
00:40:07I mean, you gotta understand, I, you're the one who lied to me.
00:40:11I lied?
00:40:11Yeah.
00:40:12And what would you call getting engaged to Scarlet after promising to put a ring on my finger?
00:40:16I didn't want any of that to happen.
00:40:19You have to believe me, please.
00:40:20I was just trying to...
00:40:23Look, I...
00:40:24Just tell me one thing, okay?
00:40:25I guess, why, why are you here?
00:40:27Are you here just, is this just some royal way to get revenge?
00:40:30Tank my career?
00:40:33Oh, Tank, your career.
00:40:35I made his career.
00:40:38I loved you, Dexter.
00:40:41You might have found out who my father is today, but you still have no idea who I am.
00:40:46Wait.
00:40:50This, this is why you proposed to Scarlet, isn't it?
00:40:54Why you left me for dead.
00:40:58Sucked up to my dad, threw me to the curb for the fame, the fortune, the fans.
00:41:06No, no.
00:41:07No, no, no.
00:41:08Actually, I think it's time to make my first decision as the new CEO.
00:41:14Can I get everyone's attention, please?
00:41:18I hope everyone is having fun.
00:41:20Reed Records will be ending its contract with Dexter Hayes and dropping him as an artist.
00:41:32Effective immediately.
00:41:34Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
00:41:40You know, I am so glad I never told you who I really was, because if I didn't, I might
00:41:46not have ever found out that you don't really love me for me.
00:41:49Casey, none of that is true, okay?
00:41:51None of this.
00:41:52I don't care about that.
00:41:53I've always loved you.
00:41:54Don't bother arguing with her anymore, Dexter.
00:41:57She may be rich, but she's just an arrogant nepo baby with no real talent.
00:42:02Scarlet is Echo.
00:42:04She can produce songs.
00:42:06She can get you to the top of the charts with or without Reed Records.
00:42:10Dexter, you don't need her.
00:42:11She doesn't understand you like Scarlet does.
00:42:14Okay, mom, mom, stop.
00:42:16You're my mom, not my manager, all right?
00:42:20I'm done talking about this.
00:42:41I've known you for years, I thought you'd say the same.
00:42:51All of those years, I've grown here in the blade.
00:43:04Fade at twine, lost in time, I'm still missing you.
00:43:14I'm still, I'm still, I'm still missing you.
00:43:46I thought I was clear our relationship is over, Mr. Hayes.
00:43:48You're no longer welcome at Reed Records.
00:43:51I just came to pick up my equipment.
00:43:54Casey's wrong about me.
00:43:56I never gave up on us.
00:43:58She's got to know the truth.
00:44:00I don't think there's anything left to talk about, Dex.
00:44:10Fine.
00:44:11Well, let's not talk.
00:44:21What's wrong?
00:44:22Your fiancĂŠ not keeping you satisfied?
00:44:27I've been doing too much thinking about my former assistant.
00:44:35Not anymore.
00:44:37I'm your former boss now.
00:44:39In fact, here are your termination letters.
00:44:46I don't give a fuck about the contract.
00:44:48I don't give a shit about my career.
00:44:50I just want you.
00:44:51And I know that you want me to.
00:44:54Don't act like you've forgotten.
00:44:57What we had.
00:44:59I've been trying to, but being this close again, it feels impossible.
00:45:06You're a lot like an instrument.
00:45:08But you tremble every time we touch.
00:45:16I don't care about the fans.
00:45:19I don't give a shit about the tabloids.
00:45:20I don't care what the rec labels have to say.
00:45:22If you tell me that you want to be with me,
00:45:26we'll be together.
00:45:31We can tease each other all day.
00:45:35Until you finally admit
00:45:37And you still love me.
00:46:03You're right.
00:46:04I am like an instrument.
00:46:06The way I let you play me.
00:46:08After what you did,
00:46:09why would I trust you ever again?
00:46:12Listen to me.
00:46:13I've been trying to tell you
00:46:14I do not want to be with Scarlet.
00:46:17Hello?
00:46:18Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way.
00:46:21Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:46:22Hold on.
00:46:22Sasha Silver?
00:46:23I've been telling you for months.
00:46:25The guy's a douchebag.
00:46:27A douchebag with over a hundred million strings.
00:46:31I mean, we have a Dexter Hay-sized hole to fill
00:46:34and he could be the next big thing.
00:46:35It's not safe.
00:46:36Casey, you don't need him.
00:46:38No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:46:40I don't think you, of all people,
00:46:42get to tell me what I need.
00:46:44Casey.
00:46:45Casey.
00:46:46Casey!
00:46:48Casey has every right to be angry with me
00:46:51after what I did.
00:46:52I have to prove she can trust me again.
00:47:05Perfect timing.
00:47:07Make yourself comfortable.
00:47:08Thank you for meeting me on self-short notice.
00:47:10Sasha generally doesn't like women who speak too much.
00:47:14I've been an exception for you.
00:47:15Do you always refer to yourself in the third person?
00:47:19I don't know what that means.
00:47:22But you want to hear one of Sasha's demos?
00:47:24They're a big hit online.
00:47:26I'm very excited about a potential partnership.
00:47:28Wow.
00:47:30Hired to be blown away.
00:47:33Actually, I was hoping for a live performance,
00:47:35if you don't mind.
00:47:36So many musicians out there
00:47:37faking their music with AI, you know?
00:47:39Of course.
00:47:42But you're not in a hurry.
00:47:45Why don't we toast first
00:47:45to this potential partnership?
00:48:04Shall we?
00:48:05How can I resist?
00:48:06I do love straight vodka.
00:48:15But you know what I
00:48:17actually
00:48:19love even more than that?
00:48:21What's that?
00:48:23Exposing
00:48:24asshole pervs.
00:48:26My hair!
00:48:27What the fuck?
00:48:29You really think you can drug me?
00:48:31And then what?
00:48:32Force me to sign you to read records?
00:48:34Now you know who you're dealing with.
00:48:37Not so fast.
00:48:39You thought you could just walk in here
00:48:40and demand a live performance from thee, Sasha Silver?
00:48:43Do I look like a little bitch to you?
00:48:46Absolutely.
00:48:46And a fraud.
00:48:50I'll be sure no label will ever sign you, no matter how talented you are.
00:48:56I won't need a label to sign me, not when I get read records, or myself.
00:49:03Don't be shy, Casey.
00:49:04I'm just hoping you get ready.
00:49:06The paparazzi will be here any minute to see my new mistress.
00:49:08He'll plaster our photos all over the tabloids.
00:49:12Everyone will see what a slut you are.
00:49:14How you slept your way to the top.
00:49:16Your poor father.
00:49:18He's going to have no choice but to hand you and your company over to me.
00:49:23You're delusional.
00:49:24Stay away from me.
00:49:26I'm fine.
00:49:26You don't test Sasha.
00:49:28Hey!
00:49:29You can't just fucking hand it off.
00:49:32I'm going to break your fucking hand.
00:49:34Dexter Hayes.
00:49:35Huh?
00:49:36Are you okay?
00:49:37I'm fine.
00:49:42What the fuck, Hayes?
00:49:44I could sue you for that.
00:49:46I'd love to see you try, sweetheart.
00:49:48You're just a wash-up addict.
00:49:50And you do not have a leg to stand on.
00:49:53Okay?
00:49:57Okay, I'm sorry.
00:49:59Jesus.
00:50:00We could have produced a sick-ass record together.
00:50:02You kind of wanted to defend this used-up slut.
00:50:06I mean, what the fuck?
00:50:09Her name is Casey Ring.
00:50:12And she's the future of the industry that you want so badly fucking in!
00:50:17Your career is dead, Sasha.
00:50:20I'm not sure of that.
00:50:22Let's go.
00:50:30Let's go.
00:50:34Give me your hand.
00:50:42Casey, I've been telling you for months.
00:50:44Sasha Silver is little-
00:50:45My business is none of your concern.
00:50:48If I didn't show up tonight, what the hell do you think would have happened?
00:50:51Do you have any idea what he could have done to you?
00:50:53He could have raped you.
00:50:54Yes!
00:50:54He could have done-
00:50:54Okay!
00:50:55I know!
00:50:57Newsflash!
00:50:57I'm not your assistant anymore.
00:51:00So, it's not your concern, where I am, or what I'm doing, okay?
00:51:05So, stop following me.
00:51:12The car is still fucking moving.
00:51:15I'll stop following you.
00:51:17The minute that you stop making stupid fucking decisions.
00:51:21And when I've made up for all the danger I've put her in.
00:51:27You're way too interested in my personal life, Dex.
00:51:33Won't your fiancĂŠ be jealous?
00:51:39I've been trying to tell you for weeks, I did not want to marry Scarlet.
00:51:47But you don't fucking listen.
00:51:49Now you're really starting to piss me off.
00:51:51Isn't that the point?
00:52:03So, what am I supposed to do?
00:52:06Pretend she doesn't exist and be the pop star's secret side piece again?
00:52:15I should push him away, but I can't deny how much I miss his touch.
00:52:20You were never the side piece.
00:52:23And you know it.
00:52:33Boss, I have news!
00:52:37Thank you for your help today, Dexter.
00:52:41Please, stop following me.
00:52:46Or else it's going to get harder and harder to walk away.
00:52:59Great timing.
00:53:01As always.
00:53:02Why are you even here?
00:53:04Done what you asked.
00:53:05News of Sasha Silver's fraudulence and drug abuse have been leaked to the press.
00:53:08No label, studio, brand will go anywhere near.
00:53:11His net worth plummeted to zero.
00:53:13Good.
00:53:14Buy all the rice to his music.
00:53:18I'm going to give you back to Casey as a gift.
00:53:25I heard what happened with Sasha.
00:53:27Now that was way too risky, Casey.
00:53:29Look, I'm far from Dexter's biggest fan.
00:53:31But that could have gotten real ugly if he hadn't shown up.
00:53:34I could have handled Sasha.
00:53:35There was also a huge leak in the press.
00:53:38All of Sasha Silver's dirty laundry aired out for everyone to see.
00:53:42He's been, uh, what do you kids call it?
00:53:44Cancelled.
00:53:44Who took him down?
00:53:47Dexter Hayes.
00:53:52He even bought the rights to Sasha's music.
00:53:55He can't sing anything anywhere or get sued to hell and back.
00:54:00Dax took down Sasha Silver?
00:54:02For me?
00:54:03Maybe.
00:54:04He's not as bad as I thought.
00:54:06Or maybe he should stop interfering himself with my life.
00:54:14The world-famous music producer, Echo, is set to finally reveal their identity at the legendary Universal Music Awards tomorrow
00:54:21night.
00:54:23Scarlet's getting desperate.
00:54:24She's trying to convince the world she's Echo before it can expose her lies.
00:54:28She can't keep up the act forever.
00:54:30Sooner or later, Dexter will realize she can't even hold a tune.
00:54:34Much less produce a hit track.
00:54:36Scarlet is nothing if she's not Echo.
00:54:38I mean, she knows Dexter wouldn't look at her twice, let alone marry her, if she wasn't pretending to be
00:54:44a genius producer.
00:54:45I don't know how she thinks she's going to get away with it.
00:54:49I think it's time the world finds out who the real Echo is.
00:54:57You want to go to the UMAs as Echo?
00:55:00They've invited me every year and I've always refused.
00:55:02I've let this scam go on long enough.
00:55:05It's time the world finds out the truth about Scarlet Heart.
00:55:08The world?
00:55:09Or Dexter?
00:55:13This isn't about him.
00:55:17He made his bed when he proposed to Scarlet.
00:55:19Well, my daughter deserves all the recognition of the world.
00:55:23But if you're going to go with Echo, oh, you're going to do it right.
00:55:26Ha ha, with the best equipment money can buy.
00:55:29Huh?
00:55:32I want people to see my princess for the queen that she is.
00:55:39Invest at.
00:55:53Mrs. Hayes, it's so good to see you again.
00:55:59How's Dexter?
00:56:00Engaged.
00:56:01Yes, my future daughter-in-law is performing at the Universal Music Awards tomorrow.
00:56:07And I'd like to gift her something to mark the occasion.
00:56:10So none of these mass-produced guitars.
00:56:14She's a musical genius.
00:56:16We need something one of a kind, just like her.
00:56:18Of course.
00:56:19I have the perfect gift for her.
00:56:21A custom Fender Signature Stratocaster.
00:56:30Please don't touch that.
00:56:32Those instruments are only for our VIP clientele.
00:56:36Yeah, it's you.
00:56:38Get this career-sabotaging stalker out of here.
00:56:42Excuse me?
00:56:43You're disturbing our VIP customers.
00:56:46I have to ask you to leave now.
00:56:52I'm the CEO of Reed Records.
00:56:56I have just as much of a right to be here as you.
00:56:59Because of your nepo-baby connections, we all know money can't buy talent.
00:57:05Tell that to Scarlett.
00:57:07Excuse me?
00:57:08I am Dexter Hayes' fiancĂŠ and creative collaborator.
00:57:12And you don't really know anything about music.
00:57:16Yeah.
00:57:16You're right.
00:57:18In that case, you should have this.
00:57:28No!
00:57:33Oh, my God!
00:57:35What?
00:57:39Oops.
00:57:40Slipped out of my hands.
00:57:42My bad.
00:57:44Are you insane?
00:57:47You just destroyed a million-dollar guitar.
00:57:50Security!
00:57:51Take this woman away!
00:57:53Hold on just one second.
00:57:54To Dexter Hayes?
00:57:56Oh, my God.
00:57:59I need to speak to the owner about an offer.
00:58:01You need to set that up for me?
00:58:02Yes, of course, Mr. Hayes.
00:58:04Okay.
00:58:07Just kidding.
00:58:19Scarlett, ignore this wannabe musician.
00:58:23We'll find a better option.
00:58:30Like this one.
00:58:32Beyonce used this on her last album.
00:58:35This instrument is worthy of Echo, the genius producer.
00:58:39Oh, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, actually, actually, uh, this guitar is no longer available.
00:58:46In fact, my entire collection is on hold for the new owner.
00:58:51I'm gonna just...
00:58:52I'm gonna just...
00:58:54My apologies, my apologies, my apologies.
00:58:55Apologies, but...
00:58:56No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:58:57We saw it first.
00:58:59Look, look, we just want the one guitar.
00:59:02I'm sure we can come to a generous agreement.
00:59:04You could pay all you want for the guitar,
00:59:06but it's not going to stop Scarlett from choking on the stage.
00:59:13How dare you, you little bitch!
00:59:22That's enough.
00:59:25Hi, Dexie.
00:59:28Are you okay?
00:59:31Dexter, she just insulted your Beyonce.
00:59:35You need to do something.
00:59:36Mom, do you really want to have a conversation right here and now
00:59:40about the current status of my engagement?
00:59:43Scarlett's talent as a producer is the reason you're as famous as you are, Dexter.
00:59:48The least you could do is show her a little respect.
00:59:53You know what, actually, I'm sorry, you're right.
00:59:56I should show respect to the one person who's always been there for me.
01:00:03Please ring up the guitar for Miss Hunt.
01:00:05I knew you would support me.
01:00:07Mr. Hayes, it's not for sale.
01:00:09You know, why don't you ask the new owner how much it costs,
01:00:13and I'll pay it, whatever it is, right here and now.
01:00:16Miss Reed, as the new owner of the store,
01:00:19how much would you like to charge the guitar for?
01:00:22Wait, what?
01:00:23What?
01:00:26I'm sorry, I'm the new owner?
01:00:30Consider a late birthday gift for my former assistant.
01:00:34You did this for me?
01:00:36You really think I need a music store?
01:00:39Well, as CEO of Reed Records, you probably don't know.
01:00:42But from someone who cares about you a lot, why the hell not?
01:00:47Dexter, are you insane?
01:00:50She's not even a real musician, and you gave her the entire store?
01:00:55You're going to make us pay her for a guitar?
01:01:00Oh, it's okay.
01:01:01Scarlett could have it for free,
01:01:02as long as she shows us the big hit that she's working on.
01:01:09Casey, I am not stooping to your level.
01:01:11And besides, we're late for hair and makeup.
01:01:14I will talk to you about this later.
01:01:18You will regret this.
01:01:21Casey has done nothing but ruin you.
01:01:23She's just a pretty face with no talent to back it up.
01:01:27Thanks, Mom.
01:01:34One, I'm not your assistant anymore.
01:01:37It's Miss Reed, and I'm the CEO of Reed Records.
01:01:41Two, my birthday was months ago.
01:01:43Actually, the night that you proposed to Scarlett,
01:01:46so your gift means nothing.
01:01:50Did you know I was actually going to tell you my secret that night?
01:01:53What secret?
01:01:57Secret.
01:01:58What are you talking about?
01:01:59What secret?
01:02:03Should I tell him the truth?
01:02:05No.
01:02:06That I wanted to spend every single day of the rest of my life with you.
01:02:13But not anymore.
01:02:16I don't need you.
01:02:27Don't pay attention to anything she just said.
01:02:29Yeah?
01:02:29I want you to get the best equipment and the best instruments to her collection.
01:02:33Yes, sir?
01:02:36Oh, I want you to get the best.
01:02:37Oh, and I'm going to get the best.
01:02:37Oh, one more thing.
01:02:39She's fired.
01:02:41yes sir

01:13:13Scarlet?
01:13:14don't
01:13:15listen to her
01:13:17I'm Echo
01:13:20I didn't even make that version
01:13:22I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer
01:13:24to send me one of her reject tracks
01:13:25go fix this
01:13:30now everyone knows the truth
01:13:36she's the one that saved the song
01:13:37no that was me
01:13:39I already did all the work
01:13:40she's just taking the credit
01:13:42I had to mix the track live
01:13:44Dexter
01:13:45so that makes it my intellectual property
01:13:48you're welcome to put it on your next album
01:13:50but
01:13:50you're gonna have to pay me for it
01:13:52where do I sign?

01:13:56I think you might just be surprised
01:13:59200 million
01:14:00200 million?
01:14:03for one song?

01:14:21that's ridiculous
01:14:22why should we apologize to you?
01:14:25I mean you don't have to
01:14:26I could just go ahead and leave
01:14:27and then Scarlet could finish the album
01:14:29and
01:14:29Dexter's career could crash and burn
01:14:31so
01:14:32what will it be?
01:14:38the clock is ticking

01:17:22but you're not all thinking about
01:17:39and so is the only one
01:18:27I think everyone saw the broadcast, and my work speaks for itself.
01:18:31You are a revolution in the music industry, and we can't wait to see what you do next, Echo.
01:18:39You arrogant fucking whore! You ruined everything!
01:18:46Dexter was gonna be mine! I was gonna be the biggest pop star in the world!
01:19:00But you had to get in my way.
01:19:05That won't happen again.
01:19:07Percy!
01:19:08Dex, no!
01:19:13No!
01:19:14No!
01:19:19No!
01:19:19No!
01:19:20No!
01:19:20No!
01:19:20Dex!
01:19:21Dex!
01:19:21Stay with me!
01:19:22Oh, my God!
01:19:27Hey!
01:19:28Hey!
01:19:29Hey!
01:19:30Hey!
01:19:30You've been here all night.
01:19:33You still love him, don't you?
01:19:36Dexter saved my life, but as soon as I thank him, we can move on.
01:19:42You know, if you say so, but have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to
01:19:47save you?
01:19:48It doesn't matter now.
01:19:50Things will never return back to how they were before.
01:19:54Casey, Dexter was an absolute idiot for betraying you, okay?
01:19:59But without him, I would have lost my baby girl.
01:20:03And those two songs you two produced together, they made millions believe in love.
01:20:09Your love.
01:20:10Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it.
01:20:12I mean, a love like that burns bright, but it doesn't last forever.
01:20:19Clearly, Dexter never stopped caring about you, hmm?
01:20:22Maybe your love story isn't over.
01:20:24The other Reed Records executives want Dexter to headline the big festival and sign him to the label again.
01:20:31You know, if our CEO approves.
01:20:39Dexter is sleeping, but you can see him now.
01:20:46Don't be afraid to tell him how you feel, princess.
01:21:06It was a close call.
01:21:08One centimeter to the right.
01:21:09He could have punctured his lung.
01:21:12If Dex couldn't sing anymore, his life might as well be over.
01:21:16Oh, hopefully.
01:21:17He'll recover.
01:21:18But for now, all you need is rest.
01:21:22That's it.
01:21:23Okay?
01:21:23Okay.
01:21:29What is wrong with you, Dexter?
01:21:33How could you do something so stupid?
01:21:37If you don't make it through this, I will never forgive you.
01:21:42Never.
01:21:46Bye.
01:21:52My God, you're beautiful.
01:21:57Why are you still mad at me?
01:22:00I think I have every right to be.
01:22:06Casey, I...
01:22:07Casey, I...
01:22:11I miss you.
01:22:13I miss him, too.
01:22:15But everything we've put each other through, can we really be together again?
01:22:19Dan, you saved my life, and...
01:22:25I will be forever grateful.
01:22:30And in return, I'll give you your song for free.
01:22:33And, um, we can go our separate ways.
01:22:35We can end on a high note.
01:22:36No!
01:22:36No!
01:22:39Is that really what you want?
01:22:42To walk away from all this forever?
01:22:51Look, there's something I have to show you.
01:22:53Something I've been trying to show you.
01:23:08That horrible night when I chose Scarlet.
01:23:12I only did it because I had to.
01:23:14They forced you to choose her.
01:23:16I...
01:23:16I was trying to save your life, okay?
01:23:19I would never, ever, ever do that to you.
01:23:22I'd choose you a million times over.
01:23:24And I knew that I'd break your heart, and I knew that I would lose you, and I...
01:23:30But I'd rather risk that than losing your life forever.
01:23:38When I said I loved you, Dexter, I meant it.
01:23:42I don't want to be with anyone else.
01:23:44Me neither.
01:23:49You're my little muse.
01:23:53My pop star.
01:23:59Which...
01:24:00Reminds me...
01:24:03Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline the Wild Life List.
01:24:10The Wild Life Festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:14You saved their CEO.
01:24:15You deserve it.
01:24:16You're the reason I sing.
01:24:19You're the reason I live.
01:24:20I don't want to songwrite or do any of this if I don't have you.
01:24:23You...
01:24:25You're my world, Casey.
01:24:28I know I've written a lot of songs, okay?
01:24:30I know.
01:24:32But none of them compare to how I feel.
01:24:35I don't want to be with you for just who you are, or what you have, or any of that
01:24:39stuff.
01:24:40I don't even want to sing or have this career.
01:24:42I'd give it up in a second if it meant just being with you.
01:24:45That's all I need.
01:24:48We do it together.
01:24:54I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes.
01:24:57Okay.
01:25:00I want us to do this together.
01:25:04I love you.
01:25:07I love you too.
01:25:21This is the biggest crowd I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:26Then you better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:30Yes, ma'am.
01:25:40I wrote this song with Casey Reed, who is my echo.
01:25:45But more importantly, she is undoubtedly the love of my life.
01:25:52So, I hope you enjoy.
01:26:08you
01:26:15Just with love
01:26:19In a blue pyjama
01:26:21Remember to smile, I imagine a world where together
01:26:38This goes on
01:26:41The stuff in the stockings
01:26:44But I am still walking
01:26:47And you're all through
01:26:51Was the fool who I hated
01:26:54Now I'm recreating
01:26:56Every time I look at the moon
01:27:01From a dream of a night
01:27:03That's lost forever
01:27:07Soon you'll see
01:27:09That it's time for you and me
01:27:15Cause the bed so far
01:27:19Was just a little
01:27:25Every time I look in your eyes
01:27:29I forget where I am
01:27:31Just a little
01:27:33Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:27:38I dream of a night
01:27:41That's lost forever
01:27:42Yeah, yeah
01:27:48I'm taking and talking
01:27:50But I will be watching
01:27:55You're a hero
01:27:57Mirror in heaven
01:28:00My heart is still beating
01:28:02Every time I remember to smile
01:28:07I imagine the world
01:28:09We're together
01:28:10Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:20I'm taking and talking
