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