Short filmTranscript
00:00:17My 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.
00:00:28I 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?
00:01:00Dex, 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, Kaze.
00:01:11How you make me feel.
00:01:12You are my favorite song.
00:01:20I lose control.
00:01:22I want you, Dex.
00:01:29I need you.
00:01:33Good.
00:01:36And because you're already mine, I'm gonna call you on that stage tonight.
00:01:42I'm gonna sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:01:45And I'm gonna kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:47I'm gonna claim every inch of you.
00:01:50Note by note.
00:01:52In front of the whole world.
00:02:08Hey, Kaze, 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 Kaze.
00:02:34You are gonna be my lucky charm tonight like always.
00:02:49I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:00I'm so excited for you.
00:03:01I know I'm gonna be my lucky charm tonight.
00:03:04I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:09I can't wait to make you the charm.
00:03:13Yes, I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:14I can't wait to make you the charm.
00:03:17No!
00:03:18Oh yeah!
00:03:19I have no idea.
00:03:20I have no idea.
00:03:22I have no idea.
00:03:22I can't wait to make you the charm.
00:03:22I have no idea.
00:03:24And 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 crumpulous sister.
00:03:50A round of applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody!
00:03:55Fans already love us. Dexter Hayes, you will be mine.
00:04:00Scarlet Heart. Dexter Hayes' groupie-turned-wannabe pop queen.
00:04:04She's always throwing herself at my boyfriend.
00:04:07Maybe once he puts a ring on it tonight, she'll finally take the hint.
00:04:12I've got a really special one for y'all tonight. Hope you enjoy.
00:04:15Don't get it!
00:04:17Let's go!
00:04:25Shit!
00:04:26Shit! The backing mix is corrupted!
00:04:28I can't let Dexter's show get ruined!
00:04:31Echo can fix this.
00:04:35Are you here? I need your help.
00:04:39What the hell is she up to?
00:04:44Well, I guess the, uh, system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes, so...
00:04:49I'll be right back.
00:04:54There. 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.
00:05:07You made him the star he is.
00:05:10I'm telling him tonight, but for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:15Oh, that's my girl.
00:05:19When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms.
00:05:42Oh, my God.
00:05:43These are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs.
00:05:46Is Casey... Echo?
00:05:57Time to save Dex's concert.
00:05:59Play that song! Play that song!
00:06:02God, where's Casey?
00:06:03She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:05The show is a disaster.
00:06:06The fans are waiting.
00:06:07Can you please find her? I need her.
00:06:09No, Dexter.
00:06:11I'm the one you need.
00:06:12What?
00:06:21This is Echo's number.
00:06:25Are you her?
00:06:27Are you her?
00:06:32Listen.
00:06:33Can you please save this song?
00:06:35I already did.
00:06:38Wait.
00:06:41Dexter, there's...
00:06:42One 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.
00:07:03Dexter, I'm so sorry.
00:07:03I would never, never do this to you.
00:07:07Thanks.
00:07:15Wait.
00:07:16Didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:07:19Uh, 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 mix to your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:07:42It's coming.
00:07:44I, uh, I'm...
00:08:03The mix to your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:08:11The mix to your next big single is coming to you in three, two, three, two.
00:08:12The time I looked into your eye
00:08:15The secret feeling again
00:08:17I know I was running out of time
00:09:10How could Casey do this?
00:09:17I know I was running out of time
00:09:18Everyone give it up for Dexter Hayes
00:09:31He promised he'd call me up on stage to announce our relationship
00:09:36I loved her and she betrayed me
00:09:50Oh my god! Dexie!
00:09:53Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:57Yes!
00:09:58Oh my god! Dexie!
00:10:04Yes!
00:10:06Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together
00:10:10I thought Dexter loved me, trusted me
00:10:15No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet
00:10:18But she made my career
00:10:20And Casey betrayed me
00:10:25It was all a lie
00:10:28Alright
00:10:29I can play along with his engagement
00:10:32And I can move on from the woman who broke my heart
00:10:42Hey
00:10:43Uh, Casey
00:10:53You
00:10:55Promised me
00:10:58That you'd tell the world about us tonight
00:11:00But instead
00:11:02You propose
00:11:03You propose
00:11:03And put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:07Casey
00:11:08You
00:11:08You gave me no choice
00:11:10I gave you everything
00:11:14I loved you
00:11:15Do you love her?
00:11:17I owe her
00:11:19Oh
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
00:11:48You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:52Well, I know she is
00:11:53You know what? I'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 anymore
00:12:13Is this what you wanted all along?
00:12:15To be...
00:12:16A music industry power couple?
00:12:19To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:22You could have had that with me
00:12:25This is all you ever really cared about
00:12:28Isn't it?
00:12:31Not loyalty
00:12:34Just...
00:12:34Your music
00:12:37What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:41This...
00:12:42Is 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
00:12:55And you're just...
00:12:57Dexter's little errand girl
00:12:58Give it back!
00:12:59Dexter, she cut me!
00:13:02See what has gotten into you?
00:13:04I don't...
00:13:05I don't know who you are anymore
00:13:07Dexie, baby
00:13:09I 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
00:13:20Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this
00:13:23Scarlet is not Echo
00:13:24No!
00:13:24Then tell me why I shouldn't
00:13:26Okay?
00:13:27Why 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
00:13:45So please just...
00:13:47Just tell me the truth
00:13:49Okay?
00:13:49Right now!
00:13:50Or we'll lose us forever
00:13:55Please
00:13:58Please
00:14:08The truth doesn't matter anymore
00:14:09You don't trust me anyway
00:14:17We're over
00:14:19Dex
00:14:22Goodbye
00:14:23Forever
00:14:43The hottest rock star on the planet is officially off the market
00:14:48Dexter Hayes popped the question to up and coming singer Scarlet Hart tonight and she said yes
00:14:54What?
00:14:59Dad
00:15:01I gave Dex everything
00:15:03I made his career but...
00:15:05He doesn't want me
00:15:07He never did
00:15:08What happened princess?
00:15:10Scarlet Hart
00:15:11She stole him and now she's trying to steal my identity
00:15:16I'll come get you

00:15:35Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man
00:15:40Who are you?
00:15:42Let me go
00:15:43Don't worry Scarlet
00:15:44We won't hurt you
00:15:46Yeah
00:15:46We're your friends too
00:15:47We've only shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Hart
00:15:51We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson
00:15:55We saw you kissing Dexter backstage
00:15:58You're trying to steal him from his soulmate
00:16:03I wasn't stealing him
00:16:05We were in love
00:16:07Or I thought we were
00:16:09We'll see about that won't we
00:16:11The only way you'll live tonight
00:16:15Is if Dexter chooses to save you
00:16:21Who the hell is everybody?
00:16:24Who the hell is everybody?
00:16:26Dressing room
00:16:27Come alone
00:16:28Choose to save Scarlet Hart and we'll spare them
00:16:32Choose your little assistant and they both die
00:16:37You've reached Casey
00:16:38You've reached Casey
00:16:39I 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
00:16:48Get 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 fiancee?
00:17:03Obviously not
00:17:04She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry
00:17:08You fucked him too?
00:17:11God!
00:17:11Our precious Dexter
00:17:13Soiled by a dirty star fucker
00:17:17Girls like you don't deserve him
00:17:19You don't deserve to live
00:17:20No one knows what the real Echo looks like
00:17:23So if Casey dies
00:17:26Then the truth dies with her
00:17:29That's not true
00:17:31First you steal my identity
00:17:32Now you're trying to get me murdered
00:17:34You're psychotic
00:17:35No, don't worry Casey
00:17:37If 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
00:17:46Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:52Casey!
00:17:53Dexter!

00:18:04Dexter help me!
00:18:05They hit me!
00:18:06And 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

00:18:21Okay, well if you love me
00:18:23Alright, you'll put the gun down
00:18:25And then let these two go, please
00:18:27No, that's not how this works
00:18:29Dexie
00:18:30You would be nothing without Echo
00:18:33We're engaged now

00:18:36Dex, all the love we ever had
00:18:39All the memories, all 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?
00:18:52Who really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:18:56They said if I don't choose Scarlet, then they both die
00:18:59I can save Casey, but I have to break her heart
00:19:03Which one really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:12You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:15And you loved him?
00:19:17You leeched off him for half a decade
00:19:20If that's what you really think, Dex
00:19:23Go ahead, make your choice
00:19:24Choose now or they both die
00:19:26Dexter, Dexter, please
00:19:29Think of everything I've done for you
00:19:31You dumped her, you chose me, don't let them murder me
00:19:35That's enough, we're pulling the trigger in 3

00:19:45Scarlet, alright? I choose Scarlet

00:21:00And for the record, I never needed your money!
00:21:03I was right to walk away
00:21:05Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made
00:21:09Look, Casey, you don't understand, alright?
00:21:11They were gonna make me
00:21:12I'm done!
00:21:15Living in your shadow, Dex
00:21:17Goodbye!

00:21:35Please, please!
00:21:36Where are you gonna go?
00:21:37Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:38You should be asking yourself that same question
00:21:42Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone
00:21:45You're delusional
00:21:46He doesn't need you, he has Echo
00:21:49Yeah, sure he does
00:21:51Fame really has changed you, Dexter Hayes
00:21:58Fame changed me?
00:22:01Okay
00:22:02And what about you?
00:22:04You'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, Casey, you don't understand I was trying to
00:22:45Oh my god, that's, that's, that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:51So sorry it didn't come sooner, baby girl
00:22:56You're here now
00:22:57Take me home
00:23:07Take your hand
00:23:36I was trying to
00:23:39Scarlet.
00:23:40Mrs. Hayes, you should have seen it. I almost died.
00:23:43And that desperate skank cheated on Dexter with some sugar daddy.
00:23:48I always knew she was a gold digger.
00:23:51She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:23:53Then when that failed, she went after the CEO of the biggest music label in the world.
00:23:59Dexter, she never cared about you.
00:24:01She's been lying to you this entire time.
00:24:03All she ever cared about was money and power.
00:24:06I thought Casey loved me.
00:24:08But the whole time, she was in bed with the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:18Forget him, Princess.
00:24:20You are much too talented to be running some rockstar errands.
00:24:25How could I be so blind?
00:24:29Three days from now, at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala,
00:24:33announcing you as the new CEO of Reed Records.

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
00:32:34playing 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

00:37:26what
00:37:27what
00:37:32no
00:37:32no
00:37:40Casey.
00:37:56That's the Reed Eris?
00:37:58Holy shit. She's not a sugar baby.
00:38:00She's the daughter of billionaire music royalty.
00:38:04Scarlet Heart is delusional.
00:38:06Insulting the new CEO of Reed Records to her base?
00:38:10She just committed career suicide.
00:38:12Mr. Reed, your gift for the lady of the hour.
00:38:16That's millions of dollars of gold.
00:38:19Dad, this is too much.
00:38:22There's 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.
00:38:40He 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?
00:38:53How could I be so blind?
00:38:56What suits you?
00:39:00Uh, the, um, guitar and, uh, CEO title.
00:39:04Why can't you just say you miss me?
00:39:07Casey, I, I, look, I just...
00:39:20I just...
00:39:22I still miss you.
00:39:31Ah!
00:39:33Shouldn't you be licking your fiance's wounds?
00:39:36Knowing she just insulted the CEO of the most powerful music company has got to hurt, but I mean, you
00:39:43of all people should know.
00:39:44Please, you have to believe me, okay, if you just let me explain, I promise...
00:39:47Explain what, Dexter?
00:39:48Why you want me back?
00:39:50After finding out I'm your boss?
00:39:53Or leaving me for Echo?
00:39:55Hello?
00:39:58No, no, look, that, 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.
00:40:08I 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, 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.
00:40:33I made his career.
00:40:35I loved you, Dexter.
00:40:38You might have found out who my father is today, but you still have no idea who I am.
00:40:43Wait.
00:40:47This...
00:40:48This is why you proposed to Scarlet, isn't it?
00:40:52Why...
00:40:52Why...
00:40:52You left...
00:40:53Me...
00:40:54For dead.
00:40:56Sucked up to my dad.
00:40:58Threw me to the curb...
00:41:00For the fame.
00:41:01The fortune.
00:41:02The fans.
00:41:03No, no.
00:41:04Please...
00:41:04No, no, no.
00:41:05Actually, I think...
00:41:06It's time to make my first decision as the new CEO.
00:41:11Can I get everyone's attention, please?
00:41:16I hope everyone is having fun.
00:41:18Reed Records will be ending its contract with Dexter Hayes and dropping him as an artist.
00:41:29Effective immediately.
00:41:31Oh, my God!
00:41:32Oh, my God!
00:41:32Oh, my God!
00:41:33Oh, my God!
00:41:37You know, I am so glad I never told you who I really was.
00:41:42Because if I didn't, I might not have ever found out that you don't really love me for me.
00:41:46Casey.
00:41:47None 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 the 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.
00:42:09She doesn't understand you like Scarlet does.
00:42:12Okay!
00:42:12Mom!
00:42:12Mom!
00:42:13Stop!
00:42:14You're my mom, not my manager, alright?
00:42:17I'm done talking about this.
00:42:38I've known you for years.
00:42:44I've thought you'd stay sane.
00:42:48Ellie Sprom Ben!
00:42:49All of those years, are proud of their place.
00:43:02I've been on deep, I've been on deep, I've been on deep, I've been on deep.
00:43:07I'm not so glad I used to miss you, mom.
00:43:11I've been on deep, I've been on deep.
00:43:16But I've been investing it away.
00:43:18I'm pure.
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, Dax.
00:44:07Fine.
00:44:09Let's not talk.
00:44:15What's wrong?
00:44:17Your fiancé not keeping you satisfied?
00:44:20I've been doing too much thinking about my former assistant.
00:44:29Not anymore.
00:44:31I'm your former boss now.
00:44:32In fact, here are your termination letters.
00:44:40I don't give a fuck about the contract.
00:44:42I don't give a shit about my career.
00:44:44I just want you.
00:44:45And I know that you want me too.
00:44:48You don't act like you've forgotten what we had.
00:44:53I've been trying to, but being this close again, it feels impossible.
00:45:00You're a lot like an instrument, 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.
00:45:14I don't care what the record 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.
00:45:29Until you finally admit...
00:45:31And you still love me.
00:45:57You're right.
00:45:59I am like an instrument.
00:46:00The way I let you play me.
00:46:02After what you did, why would I trust you ever again?
00:46:06Listen to me.
00:46:07I've been trying to tell you.
00:46:09I do not want to be with Scarlet.
00:46:11Hello?
00:46:12Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way.
00:46:16Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:46:16Hold on.
00:46:16Sasha Silver?
00:46:18I've been telling you for months.
00:46:19The guy's a douchebag.
00:46:22A douchebag with over a hundred million strings.
00:46:25I mean, we have a Dexter Haye-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.
00:46:32He'll hurt you.
00:46:33No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:46:34I don't think you, of all people, get to tell me what I need.
00:46:38Casey.
00:46:39Casey.
00:46:40Casey!
00:46:43Casey has every right to be angry with me after what I did.
00:46:46I have to prove she can trust me again.
00:47:00Perfect Simon.
00:47:01Make yourself comfortable.
00:47:02Thank you for meeting me on such short notice.
00:47:04Sasha generally doesn't like women who speak too much.
00:47:08I've 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.
00:47:23Well, 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, but you're not in a hurry.
00:47:39Why 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.
00:48:09But you know what I actually love even more than that?
00:48:16What'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?
00:48:40Absolutely.
00:48:41And a fraud.
00:48:44I'll be sure no label will ever sign you, no matter how talented you are.
00:48:50I want you to be able to sign me.
00:48:52I want you to be able to sign me.
00:48:53Not when I can read records.
00:48:54Or myself.
00:48:57Don't be shy, Casey.
00:48:58I'm just hoping you get ready.
00:49:00The paparazzi will be here any minute to see my new mistress.
00:49:03They'll plaster our photos all over the tabloids.
00:49:05Everyone will see what a slut you are.
00:49:08How you slut your way to the top.
00:49:11Your poor father.
00:49:12He used to have no choice.
00:49:14Just 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.
00:49:21You don't tell Sasha that.
00:49:22Hey!
00:49:24Get your fucking hands off me!
00:49:27I'll break your fucking hands!
00:49:29Mr. Hayes!
00:49:30Huh?
00:49:31Are you okay?
00:49:32I'm fine.
00:49:37What the fuck, Hayes?
00:49:39I could sue you for that.
00:49:41I'd love to see you try, sweetheart.
00:49:43You're just a wash-up addict.
00:49:45And you do not have a leg to stand on.
00:49:47Okay?
00:49:52Okay, 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?
00:50:04Her name is K.C. Wynn.
00:50:07And 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.
00:50:25Let's go.
00:50:28Give me your hand.
00:50:37Casey, I've been telling you for months.
00:50:39Sasha Silver is little-
00:50:40My business is none of your concern.
00:50:43If 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!
00:50:50I know!
00:50:51Newsflash.
00:50:52I'm not your assistant anymore.
00:50:55So, it's not your concern where I am or what I'm doing.
00:50:59Okay?
00:50:59So, stop following me.
00:51:06The car is still fucking moving.
00:51:10I'll stop following you.
00:51:11The minute that you stop making stupid fucking decisions.
00:51:16And when I've made up for all the danger I put her in.
00:51:21You're way too interested in my personal life, Dex.
00:51:28Won't your fiance be jealous?
00:51:34I've been trying to tell you for weeks.
00:51:37I did not want to marry Scarlet.
00:51:42You don't fucking listen.
00:51:44Now you're really starting to piss me off.
00:51:46Isn't that the point?
00:51:58So, 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.
00:52:29Boss!
00:52:29I have news!
00:52:32Thank you for your help today, Dexter.
00:52:37Please, stop following me.
00:52:42Or 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?
00:52:59Done what you asked.
00:53:00News 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 rights to his music.
00:53:13I'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.
00:53:31There was also a huge leak in the press.
00:53:33All of Sasha Silver's dirty laundry aired out for everyone to see.
00:53:37He's been, uh, what do you kids call it?
00:53:39Cancelled.
00:53:39Who took him down?
00:53:42Dexter 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.
00:53:55Dex took down Sasha Silver?
00:53:57For me?
00:53:58Maybe.
00:53:59He's not as bad as I thought.
00:54:02Or 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.
00:54:19She'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.
00:54:58I'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. Or 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.
00:55:25Huh?
00:55:27I want people to see my princess for the queen that she is.
00:55:34You're the best, Dad.
00:55:49Mrs. Hayes! It's so good to see you again.
00:55:54How's Dexter?
00:55:56Engaged?
00:55:56Yes. My future daughter-in-law is performing at the Universal Music Awards tomorrow.
00:56:03And 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.
00:56:11We need something one-of-a-kind just like her.
00:56:14Of course. I have the perfect gift for her.
00:56:17A custom Fender Signature Stratocaster.
00:56:25Please don't touch that. Those 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. I have to ask you to leave now.
00:56:48I'm the CEO of Reed Records. I have just as much of a right to be here as you.
00:56:55Because of your Nepo baby connections, we all know money can't buy talent.
00:57:00Hmm. Tell that to Scarlett.
00:57:02Excuse me? I am Dexter Hayes' fiancee and creative collaborator.
00:57:08And you don't really know anything about music.
00:57:10Yeah. You're right.
00:57:14In that case...
00:57:15You should have this.
00:57:23No!
00:57:28Oh my God!
00:57:35Oops. Slipped out of my hands.
00:57:38My bad.
00:57:40Are you insane?
00:57:42You just destroyed a million dollar guitar!
00:57:45Here it is!
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.
00:57:56You think you sell that for me?
00:57:57Yes. Of course, Mr. Hayes.
00:58:02Just kidding.
00:58:04It's all yours now.
00:58:12It's all yours now.
00:58:14Scarlett, ignore this wannabe musician. We'll find a better option.
00:58:20Mmm.
00:58:23Mmm.
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, 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.
00:58:51No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. We saw it first.
00:58:55Look, look. We just want the one guitar. I'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, Ducky.
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, actually, I'm sorry, you're right.
00:59:51I should show respect to the one person who's always been there for me.
00:59:58Please ring up the guitar for Ms. Hunt.
01:00:01I 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?
01:00:22I'm sorry, I'm the new owner?
01:00:26Consider a late birthday gift for my former assistant.
01:00:30You 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 at all.
01:00:38But from someone who cares about you a lot, why the hell not?
01:00:43Dexter, are you insane? She's not even a real musician. And you gave her the entire store? You're gonna make
01:00:52us pay her for a guitar?
01:00:55Oh, it's okay. Scarlet could have it for free. As long as she shows us the big hit that she's
01:01:01working on.
01:01:01Ah!
01:01:04Casey, I am not stooping to your level. And besides, we're late for hair and makeup. I will talk to
01:01:11you about this later.
01:01:12Come here.
01:01:13You will regret this. Casey has done nothing but ruin you. She's just a pretty face with no talent to
01:01:22back it up.
01:01:23Thanks, Mom.
01:01:30One, I'm not your assistant anymore. It's Miss Reed, and I'm the CEO of Reed Records.
01:01:36Two, my birthday was months ago. Actually, the night that you proposed to Scarlet, 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?
01:01:53Secret? Hold on. What are you talking about? What 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.
01:02:09But not anymore.
01:02:12I don't need you.
01:02:23Don't pay attention to anything she just said. Yeah?
01:02:25I want you to get the best equipment and the best instruments to her collection.
01:02:29Yes, 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.
01:03:12I 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.
01:03:19Scarlet!
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.
01:03:50I thought it would be too painful for you to witness people with actual talent perform when you yourself have
01:03:56none.
01:03:57Mmm. I'm getting a lecture about talent from you.
01:04:02Oh. Guess we'll see who's real and who's fake tonight.
01:04:06Wreck-a-legs, Scarlet. Or should I say, Echo.
01:04:11Don't choke. Hope you don't choke.
01:04:36The 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.
01:04:48I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me one of her reject tracks.
01:04:51Go fix this.
01:04:52Now.
01:04:55This is bad. All right. Everyone's just out there staring at us.
01:04:59We're gonna burn the broadcast and the label's gonna drop us.
01:05:02What are we gonna do?
01:05:03I have an idea. You're Echo, right?
01:05:18Yes. 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?
01:05:34Come on. You're a genius producer, right?
01:05:36I mean, this is your chance to show off your talents.
01:05:40I mean, the whole world is watching.
01:05:42I don't know what any of these buttons even do.
01:05:45This bitch is trying to sabotage me.
01:05:47I must have another file I can play.
01:05:49I'll just make it look like I'm mixing in real time.
01:05:52Of course.
01:05:54Watch me work my magic.
01:06:14And that's how it's done.
01:06:16She must go on.
01:06:17Nice try. Scarlet's proven herself enough.
01:06:21You can stop with the jealous witch hunt now.
01:06:24Okay. Can you boost the treble on the EQ in the middle?
01:06:27And can you pan from stage left to stage right real quick?
01:06:32Yeah.
01:06:39Damn. I guess you're gonna have to do with the old-fashioned way.
01:06:42That means recording the instruments live, looping them.
01:06:45Don't listen to her.
01:06:47She doesn't know what it takes to make a track of my caliber.
01:06:50And this isn't the first time one of Dexter's tracks have been corrupted.
01:06:54If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were trying to sabotage it.
01:06:58Scarlet. Scarlet. Why would Casey do that? For real? Okay?
01:07:02You're Echo. Okay? So just fix the track.
01:07:06Yeah. Come on, Echo. What, you have performance anxiety?
01:07:19Scarlet! You are our only hope now. You have to fix this!
01:07:23I could, if I had something other than this shoddy Reed Records music equipment to work with.
01:07:29Casey, if you're such a genius, why don't you fix it?
01:07:32Oh, I actually would, gladly, but it's actually your big night, so...
01:07:37Why don't you show everyone the brilliant Echo and how you made Dexter Hayes a superstar?
01:07:41Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo!
01:07:48You're Echo, okay? Record some mini instruments, lay them down, make a track. It's that simple. You know how to
01:07:53do this.
01:07:55You really think your fiancé 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.
01:08:07Not when I'm so close to marrying Dexter and becoming a pop legend.
01:08:22The End
01:08:23The End
01:08:23The End
01:08:24The End
01:08:24The End
01:08:32Is this part of her process?
01:08:34It would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music.
01:08:40The End
01:08:40The End
01:08:58Oh my god, is Scarlet Heart tone deaf?
01:09:02Come on Echo, show them your talent, keep going.
01:09:05Get off the stage, you're ruining the UMAs!
01:09:11Alright, look, it's done.
01:09:15You're really gonna give up that easily, Dex?
01:09:18You're gonna throw it all away because of Scarlet?
01:09:21Yeah, I am.
01:09:22That whole career that I fought for for however, how many years?
01:09:26Yeah.
01:09:30Because you know what?
01:09:32Someone that I was close to once told me
01:09:35that there's a lot more to life than just your career.
01:09:38And who knows, maybe I can get a cool new gig
01:09:40as a personal assistant for the new CEO of Reed Records.
01:09:46Dexter, stop it with those awful jokes!
01:09:49Your entire life's work is on the line!
01:09:52Mom, you heard the track, okay?
01:09:54There's no saving this song.
01:09:56Now it's over.
01:09:57It's over.
01:10:13Well, I guess it's time for the next act of this show.
01:10:16No!
01:10:17No!
01:10:18No!
01:10:18There's no...
01:10:19There's no other...
01:10:21It's time to let a real musician take the stage.
01:10:31What the hell do you think you're doing?
01:10:33Mom, Mom, stop!
01:10:36You 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.
01:10:50And if you don't?
01:10:52Will you step down as Reed Records' CEO if you fail?
01:10:56Happily.
01:10:57Hmm.
01:11:01Everyone, we're about to watch the Reed Records' CEO dig her own grave.
01:11:05It 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.
01:11:24I am not the kind for a show.
01:11:31This is not a one-time thing.
01:11:35Lights are low, but I still will.
01:11:39This morning's got a sting.
01:11:44Good.
01:11:48Now 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 much.
01:12:22You don't need anything except for a band and raw talent.
01:12:26I mean, you are a musician, right?
01:12:32Since when is Casey Reed a musical junior?
01:12:34That sound, it's familiar.
01:12:37That sound, it's familiar.
01:12:37You are not the kind for a show.
01:12:42This is not a one-time thing.
01:12:45Stop! Stop it!
01:13:01You are Echo.
01:13:02You are 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 stealing 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.
01:13:35No, that was me!
01:13:36I already did all the work!
01:13:38She'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?
01:13:51I don't think you could afford my fee.
01:13:53I think you might just be surprised.
01:13:56$200 million.
01:13:58$200 million?
01:14:00For one song?
01:14:01That's more than our entire album deal.
01:14:03Are you insane?
01:14:04And I want my name to be credited.
01:14:09Bad 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!
01:14:20Why 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?
01:14:36The clock is ticking.
01:14:39I was wrong about you.
01:14:41You saved Dexter's song.
01:14:44I'm sorry.
01:14:48And you?
01:14:49Do it.
01:14:51Apologize to her.
01:14:52That bitch.
01:14:53That 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.
01:15:02I'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.
01:15:13I was wrong about you.
01:15:13You saved Dexter's song.
01:15:16I'm sorry.
01:15:20And you?
01:15:21I was wrong about 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.
01:15:30Let's hear it.
01:15:30Tell the world the truth.
01:15:32Scarlet.
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.
01:15:49Dexter.
01:15:50She manipulated me.
01:15:51You're still my fiance.
01:15:53You believe-
01:15:53Scarlet, you are exactly what we all see.
01:15:56You fucking bought and you're a damn liar.
01:15:59What?
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.
01:16:13And so is the record.
01:16:36Please don't cancel the album.
01:16:38The album?
01:16:39Terminating your contract.
01:16:41And blackness in you from the industry.
01:16:43The story is over.
01:16:44Many of us Alsimans are off with your spouse.
01:16:49You got yourself a deal case.
01:16:53I don't care.
01:16:54Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
01:16:59Hit it.
01:17:28Your name's on fire in my veins.
01:17:33It's burning through my chains.
01:17:38Who are you to tell me why?
01:17:44Who am I to lie?
01:17:48This mirror shows a thousand faces.
01:17:53But none of them can burn.
01:17:58Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:18:35Oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:18:46Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
01:18:50Miss 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.
01:19:01You are a revolution in the music industry, and we can't wait to see what you do next, Echo.
01:19:08You arrogant fucking whore.
01:19:12You ruined everything.
01:19:16Dexter was going to be mine.
01:19:18I was going to be the biggest pop star in the world.
01:19:30But you had to get in my way.
01:19:35That won't happen again.
01:19:36Hey, say!
01:19:38Dex, no!
01:19:39No!
01:19:47No!
01:19:48No!
01:19:48No!
01:19:49No!
01:19:50No!
01:19:50No!
01:19:50Dex!
01:19:50Dex, stay with me!
01:19:52Oh, my God!
01:19:53No!
01:19:53Oh, my God!
01:19:54Oh, my God!
01:19:57Hey.
01:19:58Hey.
01:19:58Hey.
01:19:59Hey.
01:19:59Hey.
01:20:00You've been here all night.
01:20:02You still love him, don't you?
01:20:05Dexter saved my life, but...
01:20:08As 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.
01:20:20Things will never return back to how they were before.
01:20:24Casey, Dexter was an absolute idiot for betraying you, okay?
01:20:29But without him, I would have lost my baby girl.
01:20:33And 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.
01:20:51Hmm?
01:20:52Maybe your love story isn't over.
01:20:54The other Reed Records executives want Dexter to headline the big festival and sign him to the label again.
01:21:01You 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.
01:21:46Hopefully, he'll recover.
01:21:48But for now, all he need is rest.
01:21:51That's it.
01:21:52Okay?
01:21:53Okay.
01:21:59What is wrong with you, Dexter?
01:22:02How could you do something so stupid?
01:22:07If you don't make it through this, I will never forgive you.
01:22:12Never.
01:22:21I got you're beautiful.
01:22:26Why are you still mad at me?
01:22:29Casey, I think I have every right to be.
01:22:36Casey, 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?
01:22:50You 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.
01:23:05No.
01:23:06No.
01:23:09Is 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-I...
01:23:46I was trying to save your life, okay?
01:23:48I would never, ever, ever do that to you.
01:23:51I'd choose you a million times over.
01:23:53And I knew that I'd break your heart, and I knew that I would lose you, and I...
01:23:59But I'd rather risk that than losing your life forever.
01:24:02I would never...
01:24:03I would never...
01:24:05I would never...
01:24:06I would never...
01:24:08I would never...
01:24:08But I said I loved you, Dexter.
01:24:09I meant it.
01:24:11I don't want to be with anyone else.
01:24:14Me neither.
01:24:19You're my little muse.
01:24:23My pop star.
01:24:29Which...
01:24:29Reminds me...
01:24:33Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline the Wildlight Festival.
01:24:39The Wildlight Festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:43You saved their CEO.
01:24:45You deserve it.
01:24:46You're the reason I sing.
01:24:48You're the reason I live.
01:24:50I 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.
01:24:58I know I've written a lot of songs, okay?
01:25:00I know, but none of them compare to how I feel.
01:25:05I don't want to be with you for just who you are, or what you have, or any of that
01:25:08stuff.
01:25:09I don't even want to sing or have this career.
01:25:11I'd give it up in a second if it meant just being with you.
01:25:15That's all I need.
01:25:18You do it together.
01:25:23I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes.
01:25:26Okay.
01:25:29I want us to do this together.
01:25:34I love you.
01:25:37I love you, too.
01:25:51This is the biggest cry I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:55Then we better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:59Yes, ma'am.
01:26:02Yes, ma'am.
01:26:10I wrote this song with Casey Reed, who is my echo, but more importantly, she is undoubtedly the love of
01:26:18my life.
01:26:21So, I hope you enjoy.
01:26:31I love you, too.
01:26:52I imagine a world where together.
01:27:08We've pulled on the stuff in the stockings, but I am still walking through.
01:27:20I was the fool who I hated
01:27:23Now I'm recreated
01:27:25Every time I look at the moon fall
01:27:31I 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
01:27:49We just let on
01:27:54Every time I look in your eyes
01:27:59I forget where I am just let on
01:28:03Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:07I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:11Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:18I'm taking and talking
01:28:20But I will be walking
01:28:22Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:27The fear of heaven
01:28:29My heart is still breathing
01:28:32Every time I remember to smile
01:28:36I imagine when we're together
01:28:40Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:50I know
01:28:52That's all lids
01:28:52Okay, let's look at that
01:28:52That's like
