Short filmTranscript
00:00:18My name is Casey Reed.
00:00:21No one knows I'm the heiress of Reed Records, the billion-dollar music empire, or that I'm
00:00:26Echo, the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys.
00:00:29I chose to stay invisible, because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes,
00:00:36the rock star I secretly built from the ground up.
00:00:40I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter.
00:00:44We share the same music, but never the same spotlight.
00:00:49Will you spit in my mouth?
00:01:01Dex, we're backstage, someone might see us.
00:01:07I am so done hiding you.
00:01:10I have no idea what you do to me, Cade, so you make me feel you are my favorite song.
00:01:21I lose control, my little man.
00:01:27I want you, Dex.
00:01:30I need you.
00:01:34Good.
00:01:37And because you're already mine, I'm going to call you on that stage tonight.
00:01:43I'm going to sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:01:46And I'm going to kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:49I'm going to claim every interview, note by note, in front of the whole world.

00:07:48i'm a man as i am
00:08:07Every time I look, I remember the time I saw you, I
00:08:13One thing through a memory of life, the time I looked into your eye
00:08:19A secret field in the gate, I know I was running out of time
00:09:14How could Casey do this to me?
00:09:21Everyone, give it up for Dexter Hayes!
00:09:35He promised he'd call me up on stage to announce our relationship.
00:09:41I loved her, and she betrayed me.
00:09:54Oh my god! Dexie!
00:09:57Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:10:01Yes!
00:10:02Oh my god! Dexie! Yes!
00:10:10Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together.
00:10:14I thought Dexter loved me, trusted me.
00:10:19No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet, but she made my career and Casey betrayed me.
00:10:29It was all a lie.
00:10:33All right, I can play along with his engagement, and I can move on from the woman who broke my
00:10:39heart.
00:10:47Hey, uh, Casey.
00:10:59You promised me that you'd tell the world about us tonight, but instead you propose and put a ring on
00:11:09Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:11Casey, you gave me no choice.
00:11:14I gave you everything!
00:11:18I loved you, do you love her?
00:11:22I owe her, okay? I owe her, all right? I don't-
00:11:27You owe her?
00:11:29Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plan. What has she ever done for you?
00:11:34Scarlet produced my career. She made me who I am today. Okay? So, so, so that's why.
00:11:41What are you talking about?
00:11:45Scarlet is Echo.
00:11:53You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:57Well, I know she is. You know what? I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done
00:12:03for me.
00:12:03And I feel like this is a good start.
00:12:08How could you believe her lies?
00:12:10Come on, all you do is lie.
00:12:14You know, I don't even know who you are anymore. Is this what you wanted all along? To be a
00:12:21music industry power couple? To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:27You could have had that with me.
00:12:30This is all you ever really cared about. Isn't it?
00:12:36Not loyalty. Just your music.
00:12:41What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:44Hm?
00:12:46This is my notebook.
00:12:49Full of songs that I wrote for Dexter's first triple platinum album.
00:12:54That's my notebook? How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:58I'm a musical genius.
00:13:00And you're just Dexter's little errand girl.
00:13:03Give it back.
00:13:04How?
00:13:05Dexter, she cut me!
00:13:07Dexter, what has gotten into you? I don't...
00:13:10I don't know who you are anymore.
00:13:12Dexy, baby.
00:13:14I know all about girls like her.
00:13:16They want fame and money without really ever having to work for it.
00:13:20She's taking advantage of you.
00:13:22She has been for years.
00:13:24Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this. Scarlet is not Echo.
00:13:29No!
00:13:29Then tell me why I shouldn't. Okay? Why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:36Go wait in the car, please.
00:13:43But Casey...
00:13:48Look, I know that you've been hiding things.
00:13:51So, please, just... just tell me the truth.
00:13:54Okay, right now. Or we'll lose us forever.
00:13:56It's over.
00:13:59Yes.
00:14:04Please.
00:14:13The truth doesn't matter anymore.
00:14:15You don't trust me anyway.
00:14:17I...
00:14:22We're over.
00:14:25Dex...
00:14:28Goodbye.
00:14:29Forever.
00:14:49The hottest rock star on the planet is officially off the market.
00:14:53Dexter Hayes popped the question to up-and-coming singer Scarlet Hart tonight and she said yes.
00:15:05Dad...
00:15:06I gave Dex everything.
00:15:08I made his career, but...
00:15:11He doesn't want me.
00:15:12He never did.
00:15:14What happened, princess?
00:15:16Scarlet Hart.
00:15:17She stole him and now she's trying to steal my identity.
00:15:21I'll come get you.
00:15:26Casey.
00:15:28Casey, where are you?
00:15:38It looks like Dexter's whore is awake.
00:15:41Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man.
00:15:46Who are you?
00:15:48Let me go.
00:15:49Don't worry, Scarlet. We won't hurt you.
00:15:52We're your fans, too.
00:15:53We've only shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Hart.
00:15:57We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson.
00:16:01We saw you kissing Dexter backstage.
00:16:05You're trying to steal him from his soulmate.
00:16:09I wasn't stealing him.
00:16:11We were in love.
00:16:13Or...
00:16:13I thought we were.
00:16:15We'll see about that, won't we?
00:16:18The only way you'll live tonight...
00:16:21...is if Dexter chooses to save you.
00:16:28Who the hell is everybody?
00:16:32Dressing room. Come alone.
00:16:35Choose to save Scarlet Hart and we'll spare them.
00:16:38Choose your little assistant and they both die.
00:16:43You've reached Casey.
00:16:44I can't come to the phone right now.
00:16:47Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:51Casey?
00:16:52So she never left a concert.
00:16:54Get back to the concert hall now.
00:16:57Dexter is coming.
00:16:59We'll see who his true love is.
00:17:02You psychos!
00:17:04Are you hoping that he chooses you over his fiance?
00:17:09Obviously not.
00:17:10She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry.
00:17:15You fucked him too?
00:17:17God.
00:17:18Our precious Dexter.
00:17:20Soiled by a dirty star fucker.
00:17:23Girls like you don't deserve him.
00:17:25You don't deserve to live.
00:17:28No one knows what the real Echo looks like.
00:17:30So, if Casey dies, then the truth dies with her.
00:17:35That's not true!
00:17:37First you steal my identity, now you're trying to get me murdered?
00:17:40You're psychotic!
00:17:42Oh, don't worry Casey.
00:17:44If you die today, Dex and I will make a song about you and maybe it'll even be the lead
00:17:48single on our new album.
00:17:51You're crazier than they are.
00:17:52Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:59Dex?
00:18:00Oh, what the fuck?
00:18:06Dex?
00:18:07Dex?
00:18:08Dex?
00:18:09H爸?
00:18:09Dex? Dex, Dex?
00:18:10Dexter... Dexter help me!
00:18:12They hit me, and they tied me up, and they're trying to kill me.
00:18:17Okay, guys, let's just put the guns down, okay?
00:18:21We can't do that, Dexter.
00:18:24We're your biggest fans.
00:18:26We're doing this for you.
00:18:28Okay, well, if you love me, all right, you'll put the gun down and then let these two go, please.
00:18:34No, that's not how this works.
00:18:37Dexy, you would be nothing without Echo.
00:18:40We're engaged now.
00:18:42You can't let me die.
00:18:43Dex, all the love we ever had, all the memories, all the I love yous you told me, did they
00:18:50mean anything?
00:18:51You must choose one to live.
00:18:54Will it be your future wife or your mistress?
00:18:59Who really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:03They said if I don't choose Scarlet, then they both die.
00:19:06I can save Casey, but I have to break her heart.
00:19:11Which one really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:19You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:22And you loved him?
00:19:25You leeched off him for half a decade.
00:19:28If that's what you really think, Dex, go ahead.
00:19:31Make your choice.
00:19:32Choose now or they both die.
00:19:34Dexter, Dexter, please.
00:19:37Think of everything I've done for you.
00:19:39You dumped her.
00:19:40You chose me.
00:19:41Don't let them murder me.
00:19:43That's email.
00:19:44We're pulling the trigger in three, two, one.
00:19:49Okay, okay, okay.
00:19:50I can't risk them killing Casey.
00:19:53Scarlet, all right?
00:19:54I choose Scarlet.
00:19:59Dexter.
00:20:00I'm gonna faint.
00:20:02I was so scared.
00:20:04He chose Scarlet?
00:20:06Good choice.
00:20:07Cheating whores deserve to die.
00:20:09Now, wait a minute.
00:20:10You told me that...
00:20:11You made your choice, Dexter Hayes.
00:20:14Now you get to be the one who saved your soulmate.
00:20:17And we'll take care of your scandalous side piece.
00:20:20No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:20:27I guess this is the end.
00:20:34Goodbye, Dexter.
00:20:36Put the gun down!
00:20:39Put the gun down!
00:20:41Goodbye, Dexter.
00:20:43Hey, drop the gun!
00:20:54Let's go!
00:20:54Let's go!
00:20:55Let's go!
00:20:55Let's go!
00:20:56Okay.
00:20:56Oh, come on!
00:20:57Okay.
00:20:58All right.
00:21:00All right.
00:21:03All right.
00:21:04It's gonna be okay.
00:21:06You left me to die.
00:21:08And for the record, I never needed your money.
00:21:11I was right to walk away.
00:21:13Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made.
00:21:17Look, Casey, you don't understand, all right?
00:21:19They were gonna make me...
00:21:20I'm done living in your shadow, Dex.
00:21:25Goodbye.
00:21:30Casey, Casey.
00:21:32Hey.
00:21:40Casey.
00:21:42Casey, stop.
00:21:43Please, stop.
00:21:43Please, please.
00:21:44We're gonna go...
00:21:46Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:47You should be asking yourself that same question.
00:21:50Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:21:54You're delusional.
00:21:55He doesn't need you.
00:21:56He has Echo.
00:21:58Yeah.
00:21:59Sure he does.
00:22:00Fame really has changed you, Dexter Hayes.
00:22:07Fame changed me?
00:22:09Okay.
00:22:11And what about you?
00:22:12You're the one that's been sneaking around behind my back this whole time.
00:22:17I never betrayed you how you betrayed me by putting that ring on Scarlet's finger.
00:22:23You chose her and you left me for dead.
00:22:26No.
00:22:27Casey, you don't understand.
00:22:28I was trying to...
00:22:53Oh my god, that's...
00:22:54That's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records.
00:22:59So sorry it didn't come sooner, baby girl.
00:23:04You're here now.
00:23:06Take me home.
00:23:23I'm trying to...
00:23:24I'm trying to...
00:23:24I'm trying to...
00:23:25I'm trying to...
00:23:27I'm trying to...
00:23:28I'm trying to...
00:23:30I'm trying to...
00:23:36Casey Hayes!
00:23:36Casey!
00:23:37I beat him!
00:23:40Casey!
00:23:41Casey!
00:23:43Let me explain!
00:23:48Scarlet.
00:23:49Mrs. Hayes, you should have seen it. I almost died.
00:23:53And that desperate skank cheated on Dexter with some sugar daddy.
00:23:57I always knew she was a gold digger.
00:24:00She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:24:03Then when that failed, she went after the CEO of the biggest music label in the world.
00:24:08Dexter, she never cared about you.
00:24:11She's been lying to you this entire time.
00:24:13All she ever cared about was money and power.
00:24:15I thought Casey loved me, but the whole time she was in bed with the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:27Forget him, princess.
00:24:30You are much too talented to be running some rock star's errands.
00:24:34How did I be so blind?
00:24:39Three days from now, at the annual Music Hall of Fame gala,
00:24:42announcing you as the new CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:46And my daughter, the heiress to my empire.
00:24:50It's time to show the world who you really are.
00:25:01My back is pressed
00:25:09My back is pressed
00:25:11My back is pressed
00:25:16No, no!
00:25:18Okay, guys, cut the track.
00:25:24The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:25:27Look, guys, we have one week, alright, to finish this song before the release.
00:25:33The Echo that I know can put together a perfect studio mix in hours.
00:25:37You can't even fix a simple beat or a key.
00:25:41What's going on?
00:25:43Look, Scarlett, I just gotta ask.
00:25:45Are you really Echo?
00:25:50Are you really Echo?
00:25:54Dexy, of course I am.
00:25:59Um, it's just, your new assistant, he's been messing, he's messing with my tracks.
00:26:05He's obviously trying to sabotage our new album.
00:26:08I mean, look.
00:26:11Last saved by Max.
00:26:13Yeah, that's because you don't know how to-
00:26:15Okay, you know what?
00:26:16Echo would never put her name on garbage like this.
00:26:20Mr. Hayes, please, listen, it's Dexter.
00:26:24And I'm sorry, but my last assistant would have never screwed me over like that.
00:26:29You're fired.
00:26:37See it again.
00:26:53Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:26:56Writing love songs used to be so easy with Casey here.
00:27:13We're sorry, you have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:27:19Alright, she broke my heart and she moved on.
00:27:22So, why can't I do the same?
00:27:42Look what we just got.
00:27:44An invitation to the biggest industry event of the year.
00:27:47The Reed Records Music Hall of Fame Gala.
00:27:57Look, I'm not interested, okay?
00:27:59We have a song to finish.
00:28:00Dexter.
00:28:02You said it yourself.
00:28:03They can lay down a track in hours.
00:28:05We have to go.
00:28:06This is a personal invitation from Mr. Ed Reed himself.
00:28:11Okay, look.
00:28:14I know what you're thinking, but Casey probably meant nothing to him.
00:28:18He's a billionaire record executive.
00:28:19I'm sure he has a whole roster of scorned assistants lining up to get on their knees and work for
00:28:24a few extra bucks.
00:28:25You have to go and you have to impress him, okay?
00:28:28He could make or break our careers.
00:28:32Okay, I guess you're right.
00:28:33Of course I am.
00:28:36We are the industry's it couple.
00:28:39So now, forget about that stupid little assistant of yours and start getting ready.
00:28:44I mean, what was so special about her anyway?
00:28:47Her coarse, tangled hair or her dull, crusty skin or maybe those hideous, god-awful clothes?
00:29:01I'm Echo.
00:29:03I'm the Reed heiress.
00:29:05And I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:29:17How does it feel to be at the event of the year as the industry's new it couple?
00:29:21We're honored.
00:29:22And with Reed Records on our side, our album is sure to be the number one hit of the decade.
00:29:27Are you excited to meet this mysterious new CEO of Reed Records?
00:29:31I hear Ed Reed is introducing the whole world to his daughter, the heiress to the Reed Mortgage.
00:29:38Do you think she's going to be the new CEO?
00:29:39I don't know.
00:29:40Who is this mysterious heiress?
00:29:42She is Ed Reed's daughter.
00:29:44I bet she'll be making a very splashy entrance.
00:29:48Whoever she is, we need to impress her, okay?
00:29:50She could be our ticket to a number one album.
00:29:52Look!
00:29:52Here she is now!
00:30:03No fucking way!
00:30:06No fucking way!
00:30:30Casey?
00:30:34Casey?
00:30:36Hey, Dex.
00:30:37Long time no see.
00:30:41Dex has already moved on with Scarlet.
00:30:44I should be happy walking away from him.
00:30:47So, why does my heart still ache?
00:31:05Ignore her.
00:31:06And instead, focus on kissing up to Ed Reed so he introduces us to the new CEO.
00:31:11You should listen to her, Dexter.
00:31:14All we need to do is get on their good side, and our album will go straight to number one.
00:31:18She's right.
00:31:20I have to impress Ed Reed and this new CEO if I want her album to be a hit.
00:31:41Scarlet.
00:31:42What a terrible surprise.
00:31:43I should have known you'd sneak in here hunting for your next sugar daddy.
00:31:47But this party is for the elite of the music industry only.
00:31:50I suggest you wait on the street corner with the other hookers.
00:31:53But the party's just getting started.
00:31:56I can't miss the big announcement.
00:32:01Why?
00:32:02So you can seduce the new CEO of Reed Records too?
00:32:05I hear he's much more selective than Ed Reed, so don't expect him to look at you twice.
00:32:10And don't distract Dexter tonight.
00:32:13Leave, or I will have security escort you out.
00:32:16I'd love to see you try.
00:32:21Jealous?
00:32:23I loved him, and those feelings don't just go away.
00:32:26How could she change his mind so easily?
00:32:30You can dress up all you want.
00:32:34But you will always just be Dexter's lowly little errant girl.
00:32:39I thought she was someone important.
00:32:41She's just a desperate assistant playing dress-up.
00:32:45Imagine getting dragged by the Scarlet Heart.
00:32:48I would never emotionally recover.
00:32:49Where do you think she got the jewels, though?
00:32:51Probably out whoring herself to old men.
00:32:54Just like all those desperate social climbers in our industry.
00:32:58Hmm.
00:32:59They got that right.
00:33:00Hmm.
00:33:01Is that so?
00:33:03Tell me something, Scarlet.
00:33:05Is it really me who's putting on an actor?
00:33:11Is it you?
00:33:14How dare you?
00:33:17Careful.
00:33:18The new CEO might be watching.
00:33:22You think you're hot shit just because you're the real Echo.
00:33:25You may have the talent, but you have no money and no connections besides the ones you make
00:33:30in pay-by-the-hour hotel rooms.
00:33:31But me, I'm a beloved up-and-coming pop star.
00:33:35And if you so much as threaten me or my career ever again, I will get you canceled so fucking
00:33:41hard,
00:33:42your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public.
00:33:46Mr. Reed.
00:33:47Hi.
00:33:48Dexter Hayes.
00:33:49Thank you so much for the invite.
00:33:51You've always been a true hero of mine.
00:33:54Well, I would really love to put that incident with my assistant behind us.
00:34:01Oh, Dexter Hayes, of course I can.
00:34:03Got you.
00:34:05Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face when he realizes the assistant he rejected
00:34:10is my daughter, the heiress to the Reed record's fortune.
00:34:15Well, you know, sir, you may or may not have heard about the record that Scarlet Heart and I
00:34:20are working on.
00:34:21I really think that between my lyrics and, well, her producing and your musical genius
00:34:27over the last many decades, I think we could really make something special.
00:34:31Well, you make a compelling point.
00:34:34And, you know, if it's not too much, it actually might be helpful for the record.
00:34:38Well, maybe if you could put in a good word with the new CEO, well, that would make me
00:34:43forever grateful.
00:34:45Why don't you put in a good word yourself?
00:34:47The new CEO is already here.
00:35:00Casey.
00:35:03Casey.
00:35:04Casey.
00:35:05Casey.
00:35:09I've been trying to call you the last few days, and, well, I guess I'm just surprised
00:35:14that instead you just showed up here.
00:35:16I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone, for wanting to hear his voice again.
00:35:22But after what he did to me, I couldn't give him the satisfaction.
00:35:26Oh.
00:35:27You've been calling me for the last few days.
00:35:29What?
00:35:30You missed me already?
00:35:31Did Ed Reed bring Casey as his date?
00:35:34This event is invite only.
00:35:39Yeah.
00:35:41Dang, I guess I left my invite at home, but I think I'm going to stay.
00:35:45You know, Scarlet, on the other hand, though, has been throwing around nothing but vile slander
00:35:51and empty accusations all night.
00:35:53If anyone needs to go, it should be her.
00:35:55Unless you want me to expose your lies to Dexter right here, right now.
00:36:00Yeah, right.
00:36:01The only ones who can remove me are Mr. Reed himself or the new CEO.
00:36:06You have no power here.
00:36:08Okay, guys.
00:36:09Ed Reed and this new CEO are about to announce our new album.
00:36:13Can we have this conversation later?
00:36:16Oh, Dex.
00:36:18You forgot to say please.
00:36:23Wait, Casey, what?
00:36:29Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to announce tonight's special guest.
00:36:38Reed Records is the number one largest music label in the world.
00:36:43But tonight, I want to introduce you to someone who's more precious to me than any company.
00:36:49Someone who grew up listening to me play piano.
00:36:51Who has written hundreds of songs and never put her name on one of them.
00:36:56Because she never wanted to gain fame through mine.
00:37:01No more secrets, Dexter Hayes.
00:37:03It's time you finally learned who you really rejected.
00:37:07Mr. Reed is looking right at us.
00:37:10He's going to call us on stage.
00:37:12All right, this is it.
00:37:13He's going to announce that he's signed us to Reed Records.
00:37:15I want to introduce the heir to my billion-dollar music empire.

00:43:54I thought I was clear our relationship is over, Mr. Hayes.
00:43:57You're no longer welcome at Reed Records.
00:43:59I just came to pick up my equipment.
00:44:03Casey's wrong about me.
00:44:04I never gave up on us.
00:44:06She's got another truth.
00:44:08I don't think there's anything left to talk about, Dax.
00:44:18Fine.
00:44:20Let's not talk.
00:44:29What's wrong?
00:44:31Your fiancé not keeping you satisfied?
00:44:36I've been doin' too much thinkin' about my former assistant.
00:44:44Not anymore.
00:44:46I'm your former boss now.
00:44:48In fact, here are your termination letters.
00:44:55I don't give a fuck about the contract.
00:44:57I don't give a shit about my career.
00:44:59I just want you.
00:45:00And I know that you want me too.
00:45:03Don't act like you've forgotten.
00:45:06What we had.
00:45:08I've been trying to, but being this close again, it feels impossible.
00:45:15You're a lot like an instrument.
00:45:18But you tremble every time we touch.
00:45:25I don't care about the fans.
00:45:27I don't give a shit about the tabloids.
00:45:29I don't care what the record labels have to say.
00:45:31If you tell me that you want to be with me,
00:45:35we'll be together.
00:45:40We can tease each other all day.
00:45:44Until you finally admit
00:45:46that you still love me.
00:46:13You're right.
00:46:14I am like an instrument.
00:46:15The way I let you play me.
00:46:18After what you did,
00:46:19why would I trust you ever again?
00:46:21Listen to me.
00:46:22I've been trying to tell you
00:46:24I do not want to be with Scarlet.
00:46:26Hello?
00:46:28Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way.
00:46:31Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:46:31Hold on.
00:46:32Sasha Silver?
00:46:33I've been telling you for months.
00:46:34The guy's a douchebag.
00:46:37A douchebag with over a hundred million strings.
00:46:40I mean, we have a Dexter Hayes-sized hold-a-fill
00:46:43and he could be the next big thing.
00:46:44It's not safe.
00:46:45Casey, you don't need him.
00:46:47He'll hurt you.
00:46:48No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:46:49I don't think you, of all people,
00:46:51get to tell me what I need.
00:46:53Casey.
00:46:54Casey.
00:46:55Casey!
00:46:58Casey has every right to be angry with me
00:47:00after what I did.
00:47:01I have to prove she can trust me again.
00:47:15Perfect assignment.
00:47:17Make yourself comfortable.
00:47:17Thank you for meeting me on self-short notice.
00:47:20Sasha generally doesn't like women who speak too much.
00:47:23I've made an exception for you.
00:47:25Do you always refer to yourself in the third person?
00:47:28I don't know what that means.
00:47:32But you want to hear one of Sasha's demos?
00:47:34They're a big hit online.
00:47:36I'm very excited about a potential partnership.
00:47:38Well, I heard you'd be blown away.
00:47:43Actually, I was hoping for a live performance,
00:47:45if you don't mind.
00:47:46So many musicians out there
00:47:47faking their music with AI, you know?
00:47:49Of course.
00:47:52But you're not in a hurry.
00:47:54Why don't we toast first
00:47:55to this potential partnership?
00:48:13Shall we?
00:48:14How can I resist?
00:48:16I do love straight vodka.
00:48:24But you know what I
00:48:27actually
00:48:29love even more than that?
00:48:31What's that?
00:48:33Exposing
00:48:34asshole pervs.
00:48:36My hair!
00:48:37What the fuck?
00:48:39You really think you can drug me?
00:48:41And then what?
00:48:42Force me to sign you to read records?
00:48:44Now you know who you're dealing with.
00:48:47Not so fast.
00:48:48You thought you could just walk in here
00:48:50and demand a live performance
00:48:51from thee, Sasha Silver?
00:48:53Do I look like a little bitch to you?
00:48:56Absolutely.
00:48:56And a fraud.
00:49:00I'll be sure no label will ever sign you,
00:49:03no matter how talented you are.
00:49:06I want me to label to sign me.
00:49:08Not when I can read records.
00:49:10Or myself.
00:49:13I'll be shy, Casey.
00:49:14I'm just hoping you get ready.
00:49:16The paparazzi will be here any minute
00:49:17to see my new mistress.
00:49:18He'll plaster our photos
00:49:19all over the tabloids.
00:49:21Everyone will see what a slut you are.
00:49:23How you slept your way to the top.
00:49:26Your poor father.
00:49:28He's going to have no choice
00:49:29but to hand you
00:49:31and your company over to me.
00:49:32You're delusional.
00:49:34Stay away from me.
00:49:36You're fine.
00:49:36You don't tell Sasha.
00:49:37Hey!
00:49:39Get your fucking hands off.
00:49:42I'm going to break your fucking hands.
00:49:45I'm going to break your fucking hands.
00:49:46Are you okay?
00:49:48I'm fine.
00:49:53What the fuck, Hayes?
00:49:55I could sue you for that.
00:49:57I'd love to see you try, sweetheart.
00:49:59You're just a wash-up addict.
00:50:00And you do not have a leg to stand on.
00:50:03Okay?
00:50:07Okay, I'm sorry.
00:50:09Jesus.
00:50:10We could have produced
00:50:11a sick-ass record together.
00:50:13You kind of wanted to defend
00:50:14this used-up slut.
00:50:16I mean, what the fuck?
00:50:19The name
00:50:21is K.C. Wynn.
00:50:22And she's the future
00:50:23of the industry
00:50:24that you want so badly
00:50:26fucking in!
00:50:28Your career is dead,
00:50:29Sasha.
00:50:30I'm not sure of that.
00:50:33Let's go.
00:50:41Let's go.
00:50:44Give me your hand.
00:50:53Casey, I've been telling you
00:50:54for months.
00:50:54Sasha Silver is little-
00:50:56My business
00:50:57is none of your concern.
00:50:59If I didn't show up tonight,
00:51:00what the hell do you think
00:51:01would have happened?
00:51:02Do you have any idea
00:51:02what he could have done to you?
00:51:03He could have raped you.
00:51:04Yes!
00:51:05You could have done-
00:51:05Okay!
00:51:06I know!
00:51:08Newsflash!
00:51:08I'm not your assistant
00:51:10anymore!
00:51:11So, it's not your concern
00:51:13where I am
00:51:14or what I'm doing,
00:51:15okay?
00:51:16So, stop
00:51:18following me.
00:51:23The car is still fucking moving.
00:51:26Stop following you
00:51:27the minute that you
00:51:28stop making stupid
00:51:30fucking decisions.
00:51:32And when I've made up
00:51:33for all the danger
00:51:34I've put her in.
00:51:38You're way
00:51:40too interested
00:51:41in my personal life, Dex.
00:51:44Won't your fiancé
00:51:45be jealous?
00:51:50I've been trying
00:51:51to tell you for weeks
00:51:53I did not
00:51:54want
00:51:55to marry
00:51:56Scarlet.
00:51:58You don't fucking listen.
00:52:00Now you're really
00:52:01starting to piss me off.
00:52:02Isn't that the point?
00:52:04You don't
00:52:06want
00:52:06You don't
00:52:09want
00:52:10to marry
00:52:13You don't
00:52:13You don't
00:52:14So, what am I
00:52:16supposed to do?
00:52:17Pretend she
00:52:18doesn't exist
00:52:20and be
00:52:20the pop star's
00:52:22secret side piece
00:52:24again?
00:52:26I should push him
00:52:27away, but
00:52:28I can't deny
00:52:29how much I miss
00:52:30his touch.
00:52:31You were never
00:52:31the side piece.
00:52:34and you know it.
00:52:45Boss!
00:52:46I have news!
00:52:48Thank you
00:52:49for your help
00:52:50today, Dexter.
00:52:53Please
00:52:54stop following me.
00:52:58or else it's
00:52:59going to get
00:52:59harder and
00:53:00harder to walk
00:53:01away.
00:53:11Great timing.
00:53:12As always.
00:53:14Why are you even
00:53:14here?
00:53:15Done what you
00:53:15asked.
00:53:16News of Sasha
00:53:17Silver's fraudulence
00:53:18and drug abuse
00:53:18have been leaked
00:53:19to the press.
00:53:20No label,
00:53:21studio,
00:53:21brand will go
00:53:22anywhere near.
00:53:22his net worth
00:53:23plummeted to
00:53:24zero.
00:53:25Good.
00:53:26Buy all the
00:53:26rights to his
00:53:27music.
00:53:29I'm going to
00:53:30give that to
00:53:30Casey as a gift.
00:53:36I heard what
00:53:37happened with
00:53:37Sasha.
00:53:38Now that was
00:53:39way too risky,
00:53:40Casey.
00:53:40Look, I'm far
00:53:41from Dexter's
00:53:42biggest fan,
00:53:43but that could
00:53:43have gotten
00:53:43real ugly
00:53:44if he hadn't
00:53:45shown up.
00:53:45I could have
00:53:46handled Sasha.
00:53:47There was also
00:53:48a huge leak
00:53:48in the press.
00:53:49All of Sasha
00:53:50Silver's dirty
00:53:51laundry had out
00:53:52for everyone
00:53:53to see.
00:53:53He's been,
00:53:54uh, what do
00:53:54you kids call
00:53:55it, canceled.
00:53:56Who took
00:53:56him down?
00:53:58Dexter Hayes.
00:54:04He even
00:54:05bought the
00:54:05rights to
00:54:06Sasha's music.
00:54:07He can't
00:54:08sing anything
00:54:08anywhere or
00:54:10get sued to
00:54:10hell and back.
00:54:11Dex took
00:54:12down Sasha
00:54:13Silver?
00:54:14For me?
00:54:15Maybe.
00:54:16He's not as
00:54:17bad as I
00:54:17thought.
00:54:18Or maybe he
00:54:19should stop
00:54:19interfering himself
00:54:20with my life.
00:54:25The world
00:54:26famous music
00:54:27producer Echo
00:54:28is set to
00:54:28finally reveal
00:54:29their identity
00:54:30at the legendary
00:54:31Universal Music
00:54:32Awards tomorrow
00:54:32night.
00:54:34Scarlet's
00:54:35getting desperate.
00:54:36She's trying to
00:54:36convince the world
00:54:37she's Echo
00:54:38before it can
00:54:38expose her lies.
00:54:40She can't keep
00:54:41up the act
00:54:41forever.
00:54:42Sooner or later
00:54:43Dexter will
00:54:43realize she can't
00:54:44even hold a tune.
00:54:45Much less
00:54:46produce a hit
00:54:46track.
00:54:47Scarlet is
00:54:48nothing if she's
00:54:49not Echo.
00:54:50She knows
00:54:51Dexter wouldn't
00:54:51look at her
00:54:52twice, let alone
00:54:53marry her, if she
00:54:55wasn't pretending
00:54:55to be a genius
00:54:56producer.
00:54:56I don't know
00:54:57how she thinks
00:54:57she's going to
00:54:58get away with
00:54:58it.
00:55:00I think it's
00:55:01time the world
00:55:03finds out who
00:55:03the real Echo
00:55:04is.
00:55:09You want to
00:55:09go to the UMAs
00:55:11as Echo?
00:55:12They've invited
00:55:12me every year
00:55:13and I've always
00:55:13refused.
00:55:14I've let this
00:55:15scam go on
00:55:16long enough.
00:55:17It's time the
00:55:18world finds out
00:55:18the truth about
00:55:19Scarlet Heart.
00:55:20The world?
00:55:21Or Dexter?
00:55:25This isn't
00:55:26about him.
00:55:29He made his
00:55:29bed when he
00:55:30proposed to
00:55:30Scarlet.
00:55:31Well, my
00:55:32daughter deserves
00:55:32all the
00:55:33recognition of
00:55:33the world.
00:55:35But if you're
00:55:36going to go as
00:55:36Echo, oh,
00:55:37you're going to
00:55:37do it right.
00:55:39With the best
00:55:40equipment money
00:55:40can buy.
00:55:41Huh?
00:55:44I want people
00:55:45to see my
00:55:45princess for the
00:55:46queen that she
00:55:47is.
00:55:51You're the best
00:55:52dad.
00:56:06Mrs. Hayes,
00:56:08it's so good to
00:56:09see you again.
00:56:11How's Dexter?
00:56:12Engaged?
00:56:14Yes, my future
00:56:16daughter-in-law
00:56:16is performing
00:56:17at the Universal
00:56:18Music Awards
00:56:19tomorrow and I'd
00:56:20like to gift her
00:56:21something to mark
00:56:22the occasion.
00:56:23So none of these
00:56:24mass-produced
00:56:25guitars.
00:56:26She's a musical
00:56:27genius.
00:56:28We need something
00:56:29one-of-a-kind
00:56:29just like her.
00:56:31Of course.
00:56:31I have the
00:56:32perfect gift for
00:56:33her, a custom
00:56:35Fender Signature
00:56:36Stratocaster.

00:56:43touch that.

00:57:10much of a right
00:57:11to be here as
00:57:12you.
00:57:12Because of your
00:57:13Nepo baby
00:57:13connections, we
00:57:15all know money
00:57:15can't buy talent.
00:57:18Tell that to
00:57:19Scarlett.
00:57:20Excuse me?
00:57:21I am Dexter
00:57:22Hayes' fiancee
00:57:24and creative
00:57:24collaborator.
00:57:25And you don't
00:57:26really know
00:57:26anything about
00:57:27music.
00:57:29Yeah, you're
00:57:30right, in that
00:57:32case, you
00:57:33should have
00:57:34this.
00:57:40No!
00:57:45Oh my God!
00:57:52Oops.
00:57:53Slipped out
00:57:54of my hands.
00:57:55My bad.
00:57:57Are you
00:57:58insane?
00:57:59You just
00:58:00destroyed a
00:58:00million-dollar
00:58:01guitar!
00:58:03Security!
00:58:03Take this
00:58:04woman away!
00:58:05Hold on
00:58:06just one second.
00:58:07Dexter
00:58:08Hayes?
00:58:09Oh my God.
00:58:11I need to
00:58:12speak to the
00:58:12owner about
00:58:13an offer.
00:58:13You think you
00:58:14set up for me?
00:58:15Yes, of
00:58:15course, Mr.
00:58:16Hayes.
00:58:17Okay.
00:58:22It's all
00:58:22yours now.
00:58:32Scarlett,
00:58:33ignore this
00:58:34wannabe musician.
00:58:36We'll find
00:58:37a better option.
00:58:43Like this one.
00:58:45Beyonce used
00:58:46this on her
00:58:46last album.
00:58:47This instrument
00:58:49is worthy of
00:58:50Echo, the
00:58:51genius producer.
00:58:53Hey, hey, hey,
00:58:54hey, hey.
00:58:55Actually, actually,
00:58:56this guitar is no
00:58:58longer available.
00:58:59In fact, my entire
00:59:00collection is on hold
00:59:02for the new owner.
00:59:04I'm gonna just...
00:59:07My apologies,
00:59:08my apologies.
00:59:09No, no, no, no,
00:59:10no, no, no, no.
00:59:10We saw it first.
00:59:12Look, look.
00:59:13We just want
00:59:14the one guitar.
00:59:15I'm sure we can
00:59:15come to a generous
00:59:16agreement.
00:59:17You could pay
00:59:18all you want
00:59:18for the guitar,
00:59:19but it's not
00:59:20gonna stop Scarlett
00:59:21from choking
00:59:22on the stage.
00:59:27How dare you,
00:59:28you little bitch!
00:59:35That's enough.
00:59:39Hi, Dexy.
00:59:42Are you okay?
00:59:44Dexter,
00:59:45she just insulted
00:59:46your fiancé.
00:59:48You need to do
00:59:49something.
00:59:50Mom, do you really
00:59:51want to have a
00:59:51conversation right here
00:59:52and now about the
00:59:53current status of my
00:59:54engagement?
00:59:56Scarlett's talent
00:59:57as a producer is the
00:59:58reason you're as
00:59:59famous as you are,
01:00:01Dexter.
01:00:01The least you could
01:00:02do is show her
01:00:04a little respect.
01:00:06You know,
01:00:07actually,
01:00:08I'm sorry,
01:00:08you're right.
01:00:09I should show
01:00:11respect to the
01:00:12one person who's
01:00:13always been there
01:00:13for me.
01:00:16Please ring up
01:00:16the guitar for
01:00:17Miss Hunt.
01:00:18I knew you
01:00:19would support me.
01:00:20Mr. Hayes,
01:00:21it's not for sale.
01:00:23You know,
01:00:23why don't you ask
01:00:24the new owner
01:00:25how much it costs
01:00:26and I'll pay it
01:00:27whatever it is
01:00:27right here and now.
01:00:29Miss Reed,
01:00:31as the new owner
01:00:32of the store,
01:00:32how much would you
01:00:33like to charge
01:00:34the guitar for?
01:00:35Please!
01:00:35What?
01:00:39I'm sorry,
01:00:40I'm the new owner?
01:00:44Consider a late
01:00:44birthday gift
01:00:45for my former
01:00:46assistant.
01:00:47You did this
01:00:48for me?
01:00:50You really think
01:00:50I need a music
01:00:51store?
01:00:53Well,
01:00:53as CEO of
01:00:54Reed Records,
01:00:54you probably
01:00:55don't at all.
01:00:55But I'm someone
01:00:57who cares about
01:00:57you a lot.
01:00:58Why the hell not?
01:01:01Dexter!
01:01:01Are you insane?
01:01:03She's not even
01:01:04a real musician
01:01:06and you gave her
01:01:07the entire store?
01:01:09You're gonna make us
01:01:10pay her
01:01:11for a guitar?
01:01:13Oh,
01:01:13it's okay.
01:01:14Scarlett could have it
01:01:15for free
01:01:15as long as she shows us
01:01:17the big hit
01:01:17that she's working on.
01:01:21Casey,
01:01:22I am not
01:01:23stooping to your level.
01:01:24And besides,
01:01:26we're late for hair
01:01:26and makeup.
01:01:27I will talk to you
01:01:29about this later.
01:01:31You will regret this.
01:01:34Casey has done
01:01:35nothing but ruin you.
01:01:36She's just a pretty face
01:01:38with no talent
01:01:39to back it up.
01:01:40Thanks, Mom.
01:01:47I'm not your assistant anymore.
01:01:50It's Miss Reed
01:01:51and I'm the CEO
01:01:52of Reed Records.
01:01:53Two,
01:01:54my birthday was months ago.
01:01:57Actually,
01:01:57the night that you
01:01:58proposed to Scarlett,
01:01:59so your gift
01:02:00means nothing.
01:02:03Did you know
01:02:04I was actually gonna
01:02:05tell you my secret
01:02:06that night?
01:02:06What secret?
01:02:11What are you talking about?
01:02:12What secret?
01:02:16Should I tell him
01:02:17the truth?
01:02:19No.
01:02:20That I wanted to spend
01:02:21every single day
01:02:21of the rest of my life
01:02:22with you.
01:02:26But not anymore.
01:02:29I don't need you.
01:02:41Don't pay attention
01:02:41to anything she just said.
01:02:42I want you to get
01:02:43the best equipment
01:02:44and the best instruments
01:02:45to her collection.
01:02:46Yes, sir.
01:02:49Oh, one more thing.
01:02:52She's fired.
01:02:54Yes, sir.
01:02:59Dexter,
01:02:59you can't do this.
01:03:00I love you.
01:03:14Mr. Hayes,
01:03:15Ms. Hart,
01:03:16you're on in five.
01:03:16The broadcast
01:03:17will begin live.
01:03:20Did you hear that?
01:03:22Millions of fans
01:03:23are gonna be hearing
01:03:24your song.
01:03:25It's exactly
01:03:25what you deserve.
01:03:26The world needs
01:03:28to hear your talent.
01:03:30I can't believe
01:03:31I'm about to perform
01:03:31on the Universal
01:03:32Music Awards stage.
01:03:35All right, guys.
01:03:36It's time.
01:03:36Let's go.
01:03:36No.
01:03:37Scarlet!
01:03:52You can't start
01:03:53the show without me.
01:03:58I knew you'd make it.
01:03:59Of course she did.
01:04:00Her daddy probably
01:04:01got her a ticket
01:04:02after she cried
01:04:02about being left out.
01:04:04Dexter, Scarlet.
01:04:05You know,
01:04:06I'm actually surprised
01:04:07you showed up.
01:04:08I thought it would be
01:04:09too painful for you
01:04:10to witness people
01:04:11with actual talent
01:04:12perform when
01:04:13you yourself
01:04:14have none.
01:04:15Mm.
01:04:16I'm getting
01:04:17a lecture
01:04:18about talent
01:04:19from you.
01:04:20Oh.
01:04:21Guess we'll see
01:04:21who's real
01:04:22and who's fake
01:04:22tonight.
01:04:24Wreck-a-legs, Scarlet.
01:04:26Or should I say,
01:04:27Echo.
01:04:29Don't choke.
01:04:31Hope you don't choke.
01:04:46Hope you don't choke.
01:04:55The playback's down.
01:04:56The track's gone.
01:04:58Completely white.
01:04:59You have another version
01:05:00of the track, right?
01:05:05I didn't even make
01:05:06that version.
01:05:07I had to pay Taylor Swift's
01:05:08producer to send me
01:05:09to her reject tracks.
01:05:10Go fix this.
01:05:11Now.
01:05:14This is bad.
01:05:15All right.
01:05:16Everyone's just out there
01:05:16staring at us.
01:05:17We're gonna burn the broadcast
01:05:19and the label's gonna drop us.
01:05:21What are we gonna do?
01:05:23I have an idea.
01:05:26You're Echo, right?
01:05:38Yes.
01:05:39It's true.
01:05:41I'm Echo,
01:05:43the award-winning producer
01:05:44and Dexter Hayes'
01:05:45longtime mystery collaborator.
01:05:47Then prove it.
01:05:49Go ahead.
01:05:50Why don't you mix us
01:05:52a live track right here,
01:05:53right now?
01:05:53Come on.
01:05:54You're a genius producer,
01:05:56right?
01:05:56I mean,
01:05:57this is your chance
01:05:58to show off your talents.
01:05:59I mean,
01:05:59the whole world is watching.
01:06:02I don't know what
01:06:03any of these buttons even do.
01:06:04This bitch is trying
01:06:06to sabotage me.
01:06:07I must have another file
01:06:08I can play.
01:06:09I'll just make it look
01:06:10like I'm mixing in real time.
01:06:12Of course.
01:06:14Watch me work my magic.
01:06:33And that's how it's done.
01:06:36she'll must go on.
01:06:37Nice try.
01:06:39Scarlet's proven herself enough.
01:06:41You can stop
01:06:41with the jealous witch hunt now.
01:06:44Okay,
01:06:44can you boost the treble
01:06:45on the EQ in the middle
01:06:46and can you pan from
01:06:48stage left to stage right
01:06:49real quick?
01:06:52Yeah.
01:06:59Damn, I guess you're gonna have
01:07:01to do with the old-fashioned way.
01:07:02That means recording
01:07:03the instruments live,
01:07:04looping them.
01:07:05Don't listen to her!
01:07:07She doesn't know
01:07:07what it takes
01:07:08to make a track
01:07:08of my caliber.
01:07:10And this isn't
01:07:11the first time
01:07:11one of Dexter's tracks
01:07:12have been corrected.
01:07:14If I didn't know
01:07:15any better,
01:07:16I'd think you were
01:07:16trying to sabotage her.
01:07:18Scarlet, Scarlet,
01:07:19why would Casey do that?
01:07:20For real.
01:07:21Okay, you're...
01:07:21You're Echo.
01:07:22Okay, so
01:07:24just fix the track.
01:07:26Yeah.
01:07:27Come on, Echo.
01:07:29What, you have
01:07:29performance anxiety?
01:07:39Scarlet,
01:07:40you are our only hope now.
01:07:42You have to fix this.
01:07:44I could
01:07:44if I had something
01:07:46other than this shoddy
01:07:47breed, records, music
01:07:48equipment to work with.
01:07:49Casey,
01:07:50if you're such a genius,
01:07:51why don't you fix it?
01:07:52Oh, I actually would,
01:07:54gladly,
01:07:55but it's actually
01:07:56your big night,
01:07:56so why don't you
01:07:58show everyone
01:07:58the brilliant Echo
01:07:59and how you made
01:08:00Dexter Hayes a superstar?
01:08:02Echo!
01:08:03Echo!
01:08:04Echo!
01:08:05Echo!
01:08:06Echo!
01:08:06Echo!
01:08:07Echo!
01:08:08Echo!
01:08:08Echo!
01:08:08Just your Echo,
01:08:09okay?
01:08:10Record some MIDI instruments,
01:08:11lay them down,
01:08:12make a track.
01:08:13It's that simple.
01:08:13You know how to do this.
01:08:15You really think
01:08:16your fiancé
01:08:17is going to be able
01:08:18to fix this show?
01:08:19I mean,
01:08:19if she goes down,
01:08:20you go down with her.
01:08:23Casey shouldn't even
01:08:24be here.
01:08:25I can't let her expose me.
01:08:27Not when I'm so close
01:08:28to marrying Dexter
01:08:29and becoming a pop legend.
01:08:52Is this part of her process?
01:08:54It would take a true genius
01:08:55to make that racket
01:08:57sound like music.
01:09:18Oh my god,
01:09:20is Scarlet Heart
01:09:20tone deaf?
01:09:22Come on, Echo.
01:09:23Show them your talent.
01:09:24Keep going.
01:09:25Get off the stage!
01:09:27You're ruining the UMAs!
01:09:31Alright, look.
01:09:34It's done.
01:09:36You're really going to
01:09:36give up that easily, Dex?
01:09:39You're going to throw it
01:09:40all away because of Scarlet?
01:09:41Yeah, I am.
01:09:43That whole career
01:09:43that I fought for
01:09:45for however,
01:09:45how many years?
01:09:46Yeah.
01:09:50Because you know what?
01:09:52Someone that I was close to
01:09:54once told me
01:09:55that there's a lot more
01:09:56to life than just your career.
01:09:58And who knows,
01:09:59maybe I can get a cool new gig
01:10:01as a personal assistant
01:10:02for the new CEO
01:10:03of Reed Records.
01:10:06Dexter,
01:10:06stop it with those awful jokes.
01:10:09Your entire life's work
01:10:11is on the line.
01:10:12Mom,
01:10:13you heard the track, okay?
01:10:15There's no saving this song.
01:10:16Now, it's over.
01:10:17It's over.
01:10:35It's over.
01:10:37No, no.
01:10:38There's no,
01:10:39there's no other...
01:10:41It's time to let
01:10:42a real musician
01:10:43take the stage.
01:10:51What the hell
01:10:52do you think you're doing?
01:10:54Mom, mom, stop.
01:10:56You heard of Scarlet?
01:10:59I mean,
01:11:00you can stay
01:11:01unless you want to go down
01:11:02as the worst performer
01:11:03in UMA history.
01:11:04If I couldn't mix
01:11:05a whole live track,
01:11:06what makes you think
01:11:07you could?
01:11:08For one,
01:11:09I know what I'm doing.
01:11:10And if you don't,
01:11:12will you step down
01:11:13as Reed Records CEO
01:11:15if you fail?
01:11:17Happily.
01:11:18Hmm.
01:11:21Everyone,
01:11:22we're about to watch
01:11:23the Reed Records CEO
01:11:24dig her own grave.
01:11:25It seems like Echo
01:11:26is having technical difficulties
01:11:28with her track.
01:11:30Since we're live,
01:11:31let's make something new.
01:11:33Dexter,
01:11:33sing me the first line
01:11:34of your song,
01:11:34just your voice.
01:11:36Right now.
01:11:38Right now.
01:11:44I am not
01:11:46the kind
01:11:48for a show.
01:11:51This is not
01:11:53a one-time thing.
01:11:56Lights are low,
01:11:57but I still glow.
01:12:00This morning's got
01:12:02a sting.
01:12:04Good.
01:12:08Now let's make a hit.
01:12:16Let's fucking go!
01:12:34Wait, what is she doing?
01:12:37I mean,
01:12:38you produced this, right?
01:12:39So do you want to go ahead
01:12:40and take over?
01:12:41I can't.
01:12:42I don't have...
01:12:42You don't need anything
01:12:44except for a band
01:12:45and raw talent.
01:12:47I mean,
01:12:47you are a musician, right?
01:12:52Since when is Casey Reed
01:12:54a musical genius?
01:12:55That sounds...
01:12:56It's...
01:12:57familiar.
01:12:59The cut for sure.
01:13:03This is not
01:13:04about a one-time thing.
01:13:06Stop!
01:13:07Stop it!
01:13:19Casey.
01:13:22You're Echo.
01:13:23Does this mean Casey Reed
01:13:24is Echo?
01:13:27This is my song!
01:13:28She just ripped it off!
01:13:30Who's stealing now,
01:13:31Scarlet?
01:13:32Don't listen to her!
01:13:35I'm Echo!
01:13:38I didn't even make that version.
01:13:40I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer
01:13:41to send me one of her reject tracks.
01:13:43Go fix this.
01:13:47Now everyone knows the truth.
01:13:54She's the one that saved the song.
01:13:55No, that was me!
01:13:57I already did all the work.
01:13:58She's just taking the credit.
01:14:00I had to mix the track live, Dexter.
01:14:03So that makes it
01:14:04my intellectual property.
01:14:06You're welcome to put it
01:14:07on your next album,
01:14:08but you're gonna have
01:14:09to pay me for it.
01:14:10Where do I sign?
01:14:11I don't think you
01:14:12could afford my fee.
01:14:14I think you might
01:14:15just be surprised.
01:14:17200 million.
01:14:19200 million?
01:14:21For one song?
01:14:22That's more than
01:14:23our entire album deal.
01:14:24Are you insane?
01:14:26And I want my name
01:14:27to be credited.
01:14:28Stop!
01:14:29Bad deal, Miss Reed.
01:14:32And one last thing.
01:14:34I want a public apology
01:14:36from Scarlet Hart
01:14:38and Amelia Hayes.
01:14:39That's ridiculous!
01:14:40Why should we apologize to you?
01:14:43I mean, you don't have to.
01:14:44I could just go ahead
01:14:45and leave and then
01:14:45Scarlet could finish the album
01:14:47and Dexter's career
01:14:48could crash and burn.
01:14:49So, what will it be?
01:14:56The clock is ticking.
01:15:00I was wrong about you.
01:15:01You saved Dexter's song.
01:15:05I'm sorry.
01:15:09And you?
01:15:10Do it.
01:15:11Apologize to her.
01:15:13That bitch!
01:15:14Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:15:16She ruined everything!
01:15:18Come on, let's hear it.
01:15:19Tell the world the truth.
01:15:20Scarlet?
01:15:21Fine!
01:15:22I'm not Echo!
01:15:24I pretended
01:15:24and I never wrote
01:15:25or produced
01:15:26any of Dexter's songs!
01:15:27They are happy!
01:15:31They are happy!
01:15:34Wait!
01:15:35That's not what I really meant!
01:15:37Dexter!
01:15:38She manipulated me!
01:15:40You're still my fiance!
01:15:41You believe me?
01:15:42Scarlet, you are
01:15:43exactly what we all see you.
01:15:44You're fucking brought
01:15:45and you're a damn liar!
01:15:48Casey
01:15:49is the one
01:15:50who built my career.
01:15:51Hell, she's the one
01:15:51who saved the damn song!
01:15:54She's the only one
01:15:55who ever cared about me
01:15:57or loved me.
01:15:59Our engagement
01:16:00is off
01:16:01and so is the record.
01:16:25Please don't cancel the album!
01:16:26The album
01:16:27terminating your contract
01:16:29and blacklisting you
01:16:30from the industry
01:16:31career is over.
01:16:37You got yourself
01:16:39the old case.
01:16:48Hit it.
01:16:53If we're not here for long
01:16:58Tell me where
01:17:01would we belong
01:17:03My back is fast
01:17:07against the wall
01:17:09I need you to know
01:17:12I'm not afraid to fall
01:17:15Your name's on fire
01:17:19In my veins
01:17:22It's burning through my chains
01:17:26Who are you to tell me why?
01:17:32Who am I to look like?
01:17:38This mirror shows
01:17:39a thousand faces
01:17:41But you're not out
01:17:43thinking blind
01:17:44No
01:17:45I'm not
01:17:46I'm not
01:17:46I'm not
01:17:49I'm
01:17:49Na
01:17:57not
01:18:03not
01:18:04You're notGen
01:18:06removal I'm
01:18:07Not I'm
01:18:07Not I'm
01:18:07Not Gone
01:18:12you're
01:18:13Not W
01:18:13Not
01:18:14I'm
01:18:14I'm
01:18:46I think everyone saw the broadcast and my work speaks for itself.
01:18:50You are a revolution in the music industry and we can't wait to see what you do next, Echo.
01:18:58You arrogant fucking whore! You ruined everything!
01:19:05Dexter was gonna be mine! I was gonna be the biggest pop star in the world!
01:19:19But you have to get in my way.
01:19:24That won't happen again.
01:19:25Kase!
01:19:27Dex, no!
01:19:31No!
01:19:36No!
01:19:39Dex! Dex, stay with me!
01:19:46Hey. Hey. Hey.
01:19:49You've been here all night.
01:19:51You still love him, don't you?
01:19:54Dexter saved my life, but...
01:19:58As soon as I thank him, we can move on.
01:20:01You know, if you say so.
01:20:02But have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to save you?
01:20:07It doesn't matter now.
01:20:09Things will never return back to how they were before.
01:20:13Casey, Dexter was an absolute idiot for betraying you, okay?
01:20:18Listen, but without him, I would have lost my baby girl.
01:20:22And those two songs you two produced together, they made millions believe in love.
01:20:28Your love.
01:20:29Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it.
01:20:31I mean, a love like that burns bright, but it doesn't last forever.
01:20:38Clearly, Dexter never stopped caring about you, hmm?
01:20:42Maybe your love story isn't over.
01:20:44The other Reed Records executives want Dexter to headline the big festival and sign him to the label again.
01:20:50You know, if our CEO approves.
01:20:58Dexter is sleeping, but you can see him now.
01:21:05Don't be afraid to tell him how you feel, princess.
01:21:25It was a close call.
01:21:27One centimeter to the right.
01:21:29He could have punctured his lung.
01:21:30If Dex couldn't sing anymore, his life might as well be over.
01:21:35Oh, hopefully.
01:21:36He'll recover.
01:21:37But for now, all he need is rest.
01:21:41That's it.
01:21:42Okay?
01:21:43Okay.
01:21:48What is wrong with you, Dexter?
01:21:52How could you do something so stupid?
01:21:57If you don't make it through this, I won't never forgive you.
01:22:02Never.
01:22:05Bye.
01:22:12I got you, beautiful.
01:22:17Why are you still mad at me?
01:22:20I think I have every right to be.
01:22:23I think I have every right to be.
01:22:26Casey, I...
01:22:31I miss you.
01:22:32I miss him, too.
01:22:34But everything we've put each other through, can we really be together again?
01:22:40You saved my life, and...
01:22:44I will be forever grateful.
01:22:49And in return, I'll give you your song for free, and, um, we can go our separate ways.
01:22:55We can end on a high note.
01:22:56No.
01:22:56Listen.
01:22:57No.
01:22:59Is that really what you want?
01:23:01To walk away from all this forever?
01:23:10Look, there's something I have to show you.
01:23:12Something I've been trying to show you.
01:23:27That horrible night when I chose Scarlet...
01:23:31I only did it because I had to.
01:23:34They forced you to choose her.
01:23:36I was trying to save your life, okay?
01:23:38I would never, ever, ever do that to you.
01:23:42I'd choose you a million times over.
01:23:44And I knew that I'd break your heart, and I knew that I would lose you, and I...
01:23:50But I'd rather risk that than losing your life forever.
01:23:58When I said I loved you, Dexter, I meant it.
01:24:02I don't want to be with anyone else.
01:24:04Me neither.
01:24:09You're my little muse.
01:24:13My pop star.
01:24:19Which...
01:24:20Reminds me.
01:24:23Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline the Wildlight Festival.
01:24:29The Wildlight Festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:34You saved their CEO.
01:24:35You deserve it.
01:24:36You're the reason I sing.
01:24:38You're the reason I live.
01:24:40I don't want to songwrite or do any of this if I don't have you.
01:24:43You...
01:24:45You're my world, Casey.
01:24:48I know I've written a lot of songs, okay?
01:24:50I know.
01:24:52But none of them compare to how I feel.
01:24:55I don't want to be with you for just who you are or what you have or any of that
01:24:59stuff.
01:25:00I don't even want to sing or have this career.
01:25:01I'd give it up in a second if it meant just being with you.
01:25:05That's all I need.
01:25:08You do it together.
01:25:14I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes.
01:25:17Okay.
01:25:20I want us to do this together.
01:25:24I love you.
01:25:27I love you, too.
01:25:41This is the biggest cry I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:46Then we better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:50This man.
01:25:52This man.
01:26:00I wrote this song with Casey Reed, who is my echo.
01:26:05But more importantly, she is undoubtedly the love of my life.
01:26:12So, I hope you enjoy.
01:26:21I love you.
01:26:43Imagine what we're together
01:26:58This goes on
01:27:02There's stuff in the stockings
01:27:05But I am still walking
01:27:07But all you do
01:27:11Was the fool who I hated
01:27:14Now I'm recreated
01:27:16Every time I look at the moon's fall
01:27:21I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:27:27Soon you'll see
01:27:30That it's time for you and me
01:27:34Is the best so far
01:27:39We're just a little
01:27:45Every time I look in your eyes
01:27:49I forget where I am
01:27:52Just a little
01:27:53Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:27:58I dream of a night that's lost forever
01:28:02Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:08I'm taking and talking
01:28:11But I will be watching
01:28:13Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:18The mirror in heaven
01:28:20My heart is still breathing
01:28:22Every time I remember to smile
01:28:27I imagine the world
01:28:29We're together
01:28:30And I'll be the next time I remember to smile
01:28:31Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:35I, I, I, I, I
01:28:36I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I don't think so far
01:28:38Yeah, yeah, yeah
