00:00:17My name is Casey Reed.
00:00:19No one knows I'm the heiress of Reed Records, the billion-dollar music empire, where that
00:00:25I'm Echo, the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys.
00:00:28I chose to stay invisible, because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes,
00:00:35the rock star I secretly built from the ground up.
00:00:38I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter.
00:00:43We share the same music, but never the same spotlight.
00:00:48Will you spit in my mouth?
00:01:00Dex, we're backstage, someone might see us.
00:01:05I am so done hiding you.
00:01:09I have no idea what you do to me, Casey.
00:01:11How you make me feel.
00:01:12You are my favorite song.
00:01:20I lose control.
00:01:22My little moon.
00:01:26I want you, Dex.
00:01:29I need you.
00:01:33Good.
00:01:36Because you're already mine.
00:01:40I'm going to call you on that stage tonight.
00:01:42I'm going to sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:01:45I'm going to kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:47I'm going to claim every inch of you.
00:01:50Note by note.
00:01:52In front of the whole world.
00:02:09Hey, Casey, um, what's with all the secret phone calls?
00:02:13Just, what are you hiding?
00:02:16Nothing, it's just work stuff.
00:02:19Okay.
00:02:21It's time I come clean, too.
00:02:23Once he finishes this concert, the Echo mask will come off.
00:02:27And I can finally be the real me.
00:02:30His Echo and his Casey.
00:02:35You are going to be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:50I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:01He's got an image.
00:03:03I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:05I may have fun.
00:03:10I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:11You are going to be my happy.
00:03:15I need champagne.
00:03:18I'm going to be my happy.
00:03:19I'm going to be my happy.
00:03:21I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:24And now, for the star of our show, the world's hottest pop star, and my soulmate, Dexter
00:03:33Hayes!
00:03:37Wait for me, right here?
00:03:42Dexter Hayes is my ticket to the top of the charts, but I'll never lock him down as long
00:03:47as he's in bed with his grumpy assistant.
00:03:50A lot of applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody!
00:03:56Fans already love us.
00:03:57Dexter Hayes, you will be mine.
00:04:01Scarlet Heart.
00:04:02Dexter Hayes' groupie-turned-wannabe pop queen.
00:04:05She's always throwing herself at my boyfriend.
00:04:08Maybe once he puts a ring on it tonight, she'll finally take the hint.
00:04:13I've got a really special one for y'all tonight.
00:04:15Hope you enjoy.
00:04:16I'm so sorry!
00:04:26Shit!
00:04:27The backing mix is corrupted.
00:04:29I can't let Dexter's show get ruined.
00:04:32Echo can fix this.
00:04:36Are you here?
00:04:37I need your help.
00:04:40What the hell is she up to?
00:04:45Well, I guess the system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes, so...
00:04:50I'll be right back.
00:04:55There.
00:04:56Your gear from the studio.
00:04:58Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:05:00Dad, we've talked about this in public, I am not your daughter, and I'm not Echo.
00:05:05But Dexter should know how hard you've worked for him.
00:05:08You made him the star he is.
00:05:11I'm telling him tonight, but for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:16Oh, that's my girl.
00:05:20When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms.
00:05:43Oh, my God.
00:05:44These are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs.
00:05:47Is Casey... Echo?
00:05:50Echo?
00:05:58Time to save Dexter's concert.
00:06:00Play that song!
00:06:01Play that song!
00:06:03God, where's Casey?
00:06:04She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:05The show is a disaster.
00:06:07The fans are waiting.
00:06:08Can you please find her?
00:06:09I need her.
00:06:10No, Dexter.
00:06:12I'm the one you need.
00:06:13What?
00:06:22Mrs. Echo's not?
00:06:26Are you her?
00:06:28Are you her?
00:06:33Listen, can you please save this song?
00:06:36I already did.
00:06:40Wait.
00:06:42Dexter, there's one more thing I should probably show you.
00:06:47Casey has been hiding another man.
00:06:55All those secret phone calls, dodged questions.
00:06:58Casey was cheating on me this whole time.
00:07:02Dexter, I'm so sorry.
00:07:04I would never, never do this to you.
00:07:08Thanks.
00:07:15What are you doing?
00:07:17Wait.
00:07:18Didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:07:20Uh, and we're back.
00:07:22Well, I, uh, I wrote this song for the love of my life.
00:07:27At least I thought so.
00:07:37Get ready, Dex.
00:07:38The next, your next big single is coming to you in three,
00:07:41three, two, one.
00:07:46I'm a man as high.
00:08:05Every time I look, I remember the time I saw you, I, one thing to remember you by, the time
00:08:14I looked into your eye, the secret feeling again, I know it.
00:08:20Was when I died
00:09:12How could Casey do this to me?
00:09:19Everyone give it up for Dexter Hay
00:09:21He promised he'd call me up on stage
00:09:36To announce our relationship
00:09:38I loved her
00:09:40And she betrayed me
00:09:52Oh my god
00:09:53Dexie
00:09:55Oh my god
00:09:56Is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:59Yes
00:09:59Oh my god
00:10:04Dexie
00:10:06Yes
00:10:08Tonight was supposed to be the start
00:10:11Of our new life together
00:10:12I thought Dexter loved me
00:10:15Trusted me
00:10:17No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet
00:10:20But she made my career
00:10:22And Casey betrayed me
00:10:27It was all a lie
00:10:30Alright, I can play along with his engagement
00:10:33And I can move on from the woman who broke my heart
00:10:44Hey, uh, Casey
00:10:56You promised me
00:11:00That you'd tell the world about us tonight
00:11:02But instead
00:11:04You propose
00:11:05And put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:09Casey, you
00:11:10You gave me no choice
00:11:12I gave you everything
00:11:16I loved you
00:11:17Do you love her?
00:11:19I owe her
00:11:21Oh
00:11:21Okay, I owe her
00:11:23Alright, I don't
00:11:24You owe her?
00:11:26Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plan
00:11:30What has she ever done for you?
00:11:32Scarlet produced my career
00:11:34She made me who I am today
00:11:36Okay, so that's why
00:11:38What are you talking about?
00:11:42Scarlet is Echo
00:11:50You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:54Well, I know she is
00:11:55You know what?
00:11:56I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done for me
00:12:00And I feel like this is a good start
00:12:05How could you believe her lies?
00:12:07Come on, all you do is lie
00:12:11You know, I don't even know who you are anymore
00:12:14Is this what you wanted all along?
00:12:17To be a music industry power couple?
00:12:21To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:24He could have had that with me
00:12:27This is all you ever really cared about
00:12:30Isn't it?
00:12:33Not loyalty
00:12:34Just your music
00:12:38What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:43This is my notebook
00:12:45Full of songs that I wrote
00:12:48For Dexter's first triple platinum album
00:12:51That's my notebook
00:12:52How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:55I'm a musical genius
00:12:56And you're just
00:12:58And you're just
00:12:59Dexter's little errand girl
00:13:00I can't get back
00:13:01I can't get back
00:13:26Let go
00:13:26Then tell me why I shouldn't
00:13:28Okay, well why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:33Go wait in the car
00:13:34Please
00:13:40Casey
00:13:45Look, I know that you've been hiding things
00:13:47So please just
00:13:49Just tell me the truth
00:13:51Okay, right now
00:13:52Or we'll lose us forever
00:13:59Please
00:14:10The truth doesn't matter anymore
00:14:12You don't trust me anyway
00:14:18We're over
00:14:20Dex
00:14:24Goodbye
00:14:25Forever
00:14:46The hottest rock star
00:14:47On the planet
00:14:48Is officially off the market
00:14:50Dexter Hayes
00:14:51Popped a question
00:14:52To up and coming singer
00:14:53Scarlet Hart tonight
00:14:55And she said yes
00:15:01Dad
00:15:03I gave Dex everything
00:15:05I made his career
00:15:07But
00:15:08He doesn't want me
00:15:09He never did
00:15:10What happened, princess?
00:15:13Scarlet Hart
00:15:14She stole him
00:15:16And now she's trying to steal my identity
00:15:18I'll come get you
00:15:24Casey
00:15:35It looks like Dexter's whore is awake
00:15:38Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man
00:15:43Who are you?
00:15:44Let me go
00:15:45Don't worry, Scarlet
00:15:47We won't hurt you
00:15:48We're your fans too
00:15:50We've always shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Hart
00:15:54We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson
00:15:57We saw you kissing Dexter backstage
00:16:01You're trying to steal him from his soul mate
00:16:05I wasn't stealing him
00:16:07We were in love
00:16:09Or I thought we were
00:16:12We'll see about that, won't we?
00:16:14The only way you'll live tonight
00:16:18Is if Dexter chooses to save you
00:16:24Where the hell is everybody?
00:16:29Dressing room
00:16:30Come alone
00:16:31Choose to save Scarlet Hart
00:16:33And we'll spare them
00:16:35Choose your little assistant
00:16:37And they both die
00:16:40You've reached Casey
00:16:41I can't come to the phone right now
00:16:44Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:48Casey?
00:16:48So she never left a concert
00:16:50Get back to the concert hall now
00:16:53Dexter is coming
00:16:55We'll see who his true love is
00:16:58You psychos!
00:17:01Are you hoping that he chooses you over his fiancée?
00:17:06Obviously not
00:17:07She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry
00:17:11You fucked him too?
00:17:13God
00:17:14Our precious Dexter
00:17:16Soiled by a dirty star fucker
00:17:19Girls like you don't deserve him
00:17:22You don't deserve to live
00:17:23No one knows what the real Echo looks like
00:17:26So if Casey dies
00:17:29Then the truth dies with her
00:17:31That's not true
00:17:33First you steal my identity
00:17:35Now you're trying to get me murdered
00:17:37You're psychotic
00:17:38No, don't worry Casey
00:17:40If you die today
00:17:41Dex and I will make a song about you
00:17:43And maybe it'll even be the lead single on our new album
00:17:47You're crazier than they are
00:17:49Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:55Casey
00:17:56Dexter
00:18:02Dexter
00:18:03Casey
00:18:05Dexter
00:18:09Dexter
00:18:10And they tied me up
00:18:11And now they're trying to kill me
00:18:13Okay guys
00:18:14Let's
00:18:15Let's just put the guns down
00:18:17Okay?
00:18:18We can't do that Dexter
00:18:20We're your biggest fans
00:18:22We're doing this for you
00:18:24Okay well if you love me
00:18:27Alright
00:18:27You'll put the gun down
00:18:29And you'll let these two go
00:18:30Please
00:18:30No that's not how this works
00:18:32Dexie
00:18:33You would be nothing without Echo
00:18:36We're engaged now
00:18:38You can't let me die
00:18:39Dex
00:18:40All the love we ever had
00:18:42All the memories
00:18:43All the I love you's you told me
00:18:45Did they mean anything?
00:18:48You must choose one to live
00:18:50Will it be your future wife?
00:18:53Or your mistress?
00:18:55Who really holds the key to your heart
00:18:57Dexter Hayes?
00:18:59They said if I don't choose Scarlet
00:19:01Then they both die
00:19:02I can save Casey
00:19:04But I
00:19:04I have to break her heart
00:19:07Which one really holds the key to your heart?
00:19:09Dexter Hayes
00:19:16You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:19And you loved him?
00:19:21You leeched off him
00:19:22For half a decade
00:19:24If that's what you really think Dex
00:19:26Go ahead
00:19:27Make your choice
00:19:28Choose now
00:19:29Or they both die
00:19:30Dexter
00:19:31Dexter
00:19:32Please

00:19:34You dumped her
00:19:36You chose me
00:19:37Don't let them murder me
00:19:38That's enough
00:19:40We're pulling the trigger in
00:19:41Three
00:19:43Two
00:19:44One
00:19:45Okay, okay, okay

00:20:02Good choice
00:20:03Cheating whores deserve to die
00:20:05Now wait a minute

00:21:05I never needed your money
00:21:07I was right to walk away
00:21:09Staying with you
00:21:10Was the biggest mistake
00:21:11I've ever made
00:21:13Look, Casey

00:21:21Goodbye

00:21:39Please
00:21:40We're gonna go
00:21:41Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:43You should be asking yourself that same question
00:21:46Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone
00:21:49You're delusional
00:21:50He doesn't need you
00:21:52He has Echo
00:21:53Yeah
00:21:55Sure he does
00:21:56Fame really has changed you
00:21:59Dexter Hayes
00:22:03Fame changed me?
00:22:05Okay
00:22:07And what about you?
00:22:08You're the one that's been sneaking around behind my back this whole time
00:22:13I never betrayed you how you betrayed me by putting that ring on Scarlet's finger
00:22:18You chose her
00:22:20You chose her
00:22:20And you left me for dead
00:22:22No
00:22:22Casey, you don't understand
00:22:24I was trying to
00:22:49Oh my god that's that's that's Ed Reed the CEO of Reed Records
00:22:55So sorry it didn't come sooner baby girl
00:23:00You're here now
00:23:01Take me home
00:23:12I was trying to
00:23:13Take me home
00:23:14I was trying to
00:23:16We should be here
00:23:17I was much
00:23:18We should be here
00:23:19I was trying to
00:23:20You have everything
00:23:21Take me home
00:23:21I was trying to
00:23:24Tell me
00:23:25Take me home
00:23:26I'm not gonna kill you!
00:23:35I'm not gonna kill you!
00:23:35I'm not gonna kill you!
00:23:35I'm not gonna kill you!
00:23:36I'm not gonna kill you!
00:23:36Kei-she!
00:23:37Kei-she!
00:23:39Let me explain!
00:23:44Scarlet.
00:23:45Mrs. Hayes.
00:23:46You should have seen it. I almost died.
00:23:49And that desperate skank cheated on Dexter with some sugar daddy.
00:23:53I always knew she was a gold digger.
00:23:56She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:23:59Then when that failed, she went after the CEO of the biggest music label in the world.
00:24:04Dexter, she never cared about you.
00:24:07She's been lying to you this entire time.
00:24:09All she ever cared about was money and power.
00:24:12I thought Casey loved me.
00:24:14But the whole time, she was in bed with the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:18No!
00:24:23Forget him, Princess.
00:24:25Hmm?
00:24:26You are much too talented to be running some rockstar's errands.
00:24:30How could I be so blind?
00:24:34Three days from now, at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala,
00:24:38announcing you as the new CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:42And my daughter, the heiress to my empire.
00:24:45It's time to show the world who you really are.
00:24:57My back is pressed.
00:25:05My back is pressed.
00:25:12No, no!
00:25:15Ah, no!
00:25:16Guys, cut the track.
00:25:20The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:25:23Look, guys, we have one week, alright, to finish this song before the release.
00:25:28The Echo that I know can put together a perfect studio mix in hours.
00:25:33You can't even fix a simple beat or a key.
00:25:37What's going on?
00:25:39Look, Scarlet, I just gotta ask.
00:25:41Are you really Echo?
00:25:47Are you really Echo?
00:25:50Dexy, of course I am.
00:25:55It's just your new assistant.
00:25:58He's been messing, he's messing with my tracks.
00:26:01He's obviously trying to sabotage our new album.
00:26:04I mean, look.
00:26:07Last saved by Max.
00:26:09Yeah, that's because you don't know how to...
00:26:11Okay, you know what?
00:26:12Echo would never put her name on garbage like this.
00:26:16Mr. Hayes, please, listen.
00:26:19It's Dexter, and I'm sorry, but my last assistant would have never screwed me over like that.
00:26:25You're fired.
00:26:48Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:26:52Writing love songs used to be so easy with Casey here.
00:27:08We're sorry.
00:27:09You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:27:14All right, she broke my heart and she moved on.
00:27:18So why can't I do the same?
00:27:38Look what we just got.
00:27:39An invitation to the biggest industry event of the year.
00:27:43The Reed Records Music Hall of Fame Gala.
00:27:52Look, I'm not interested.
00:27:54Okay, we have a song to finish.
00:27:56Dexter.
00:27:57You said it yourself.
00:27:59They can lay down a track in hours.
00:28:00We have to go.
00:28:02This is a personal invitation from Mr. Ed Reed himself.
00:28:07Okay, look, I know what you're thinking, but Casey probably meant nothing to him.
00:28:13He's a billionaire record executive.
00:28:15I'm sure he has a whole roster of scorned assistants lining up to get on their knees and work for
00:28:20a few extra bucks.
00:28:21You have to go and you have to impress him, okay?
00:28:24He could make or break our careers.
00:28:27Okay, I guess you're right.
00:28:29Of course I am.
00:28:32We are the industry's it couple.
00:28:35So now forget about that stupid little assistant of yours and start getting ready.
00:28:40I mean, what was so special about her anyway?
00:28:43Her coarse tangled hair or her dull crusty skin or maybe those hideous god-awful clothes?
00:28:57I'm Echo.
00:28:59I'm the Reed heiress.
00:29:01And I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:29:06Scarlett, open the door.
00:29:07Show me small.
00:29:08Come on, Dexter.
00:29:12How does it feel to be at the event of the year as the industry's new it couple?
00:29:17We're honored.
00:29:18And with Reed Records on our side, our album is sure to be the number one hit of the decade.
00:29:22Are you excited to meet this mysterious new CEO of Reed Records?
00:29:27I hear Ed Reed is introducing the whole world to his daughter.
00:29:31The heiress to the Reed fortune.
00:29:33Do you think she's going to be the new CEO?
00:29:35I don't know.
00:29:35Who is this mysterious heiress?
00:29:38She is Ed Reed's daughter.
00:29:40I'll bet she'll be making a very splashy entrance.
00:29:43Whoever she is, we need to impress her, okay?
00:29:45She could be our ticket to a number one album.
00:29:47Look!
00:29:48Here she is now!
00:29:59No fucking way!
00:30:24Casey?
00:30:29Casey?
00:30:31Hey, Dex.
00:30:32Long time no see.
00:30:36Dex has already moved on with Scarlett.
00:30:39I should be happy walking away from him.
00:30:42So, why does my heart still ache?
00:30:47Okay.
00:31:00Ignore her.
00:31:01But instead, focus on kissing up to Ed Reed so he introduces us to the new CEO.
00:31:07You should listen to her, Dexter.
00:31:09All we need to do is get on their good side, and our album will go straight to number one.
00:31:14She's right.
00:31:15I have to impress Ed Reed and this new CEO if I want our album to be a hit.
00:31:36Scarlett, what a terrible surprise.
00:31:39I should have known you'd sneak in here hunting for your next sugar daddy.
00:31:42But this party is for the elite of the music industry only.
00:31:46I suggest you wait on the street corner with the other hookers.
00:31:49But the party's just getting started.
00:31:51I can't miss the big announcement.
00:31:56Why?
00:31:57So you can seduce the new CEO of Reed Records too?
00:32:00I hear he's much more selective than Ed Reed, so don't expect him to look at you twice.
00:32:06And don't distract Dexter tonight.
00:32:08Leave, or I will have security escort you out.
00:32:11I'd love to see you try.
00:32:16Jealous?
00:32:18I loved him, and those feelings don't just go away.
00:32:21How could she change his mind so easily?
00:32:25You can dress up all you want.
00:32:29But you will always just be Dexter's lowly little errant girl.
00:32:34I thought she was someone important.
00:32:37She's just a desperate assistant playing dress-up.
00:32:40Imagine getting dragged by the Scarlet Heart.
00:32:43I would never emotionally recover.
00:32:45Where do you think she got the jewels, though?
00:32:46Probably out-whoring herself to old men.
00:32:49Just like all those desperate social climbers in our industry.
00:32:53Hmm.
00:32:54I got that right.
00:32:55Hmm.
00:32:56Is that so?
00:32:58Tell me something, Scarlet.
00:33:00Is it really me?
00:33:02Who's putting on an actor?
00:33:06Is it you?
00:33:08How dare you!
00:33:12Careful.
00:33:13The new CEO might be watching.
00:33:17You think you're hot shit just because you're the real Echo.
00:33:20You may have the talent, but you have no money and no connections besides the ones you make
00:33:24in pay-by-the-hour hotel rooms.
00:33:26But me, I'm a beloved up-and-coming pop star.
00:33:29And if you so much as threaten me or my career ever again, I will get you canceled so fucking
00:33:36hard, your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public.
00:33:41Mr. Reed, hi, Dexter Hayes.
00:33:43Thank you so much for the invite.
00:33:46You've always been a true hero of mine.
00:33:49Well, I would really love to put that, um, well, that incident with my assistant behind us.
00:33:56Oh, Dexter Hayes, of course I can.
00:33:58Good.
00:34:00Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face when he realizes the assistant he rejected is my
00:34:05daughter, the heiress to the Reed record's fortune.
00:34:09Well, you know, sir, um, well, you may or may not have heard about, uh, the record that Scarlet Heart
00:34:14and I are, uh, working on.
00:34:16I really think that between my lyrics and, well, her producing and your musical genius over the last many decades,
00:34:23I think we could really make something special.
00:34:25Well, you make a compelling point.
00:34:28And, you know, if it's not too much, it actually might be helpful for the record.
00:34:32Well, maybe if you could put in a good word with the new CEO, I, I, well, that would make
00:34:38me forever, forever grateful.
00:34:40Why don't you put in a good word yourself?
00:34:42The new CEO is already here.
00:34:55Casey.
00:34:57Casey.
00:34:59Casey.
00:35:00Casey.
00:35:02Uh, I've, I've been trying to call you the last few days, and, well, I guess I'm just surprised that
00:35:08instead you just showed up here.
00:35:10I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone, for wanting to hear his voice again.
00:35:16But after what he did to me, I couldn't give him the satisfaction.
00:35:21Oh, you've been calling me for the last few days.
00:35:24What, you missed me already?
00:35:25Did Ed Reed bring Casey as his date?
00:35:29This event is invite only.
00:35:34Yeah.
00:35:35Dang, I guess I left my invite at home, but I think I'm gonna stay.
00:35:40You know, Scarlet, on the other hand, though, has been throwing around nothing but vile slander and empty accusations all
00:35:47night.
00:35:47If anyone needs to go, it should be her.
00:35:49Unless you want me to expose your lies to Dexter right here, right now.
00:35:54Yeah, right.
00:35:55The only ones who can remove me are Mr. Reed himself or the new CEO.
00:36:00You have no power here.
00:36:02Okay, guys.
00:36:03Ed Reed and this new CEO are about to announce our new album.
00:36:08Can we have this conversation later?
00:36:10Oh, Dex, you forgot to say please.
00:36:17Wait, Casey, what?
00:36:23Ladies and gentlemen, it's time to announce tonight's special guest.
00:36:32Reed Records is the number one largest music label in the world.
00:36:37But tonight, I want to introduce you to someone who's more precious to me than any company.
00:36:43Someone who grew up listening to me play piano.
00:36:46Who has written hundreds of songs and never put her name on one of them.
00:36:50Because she never wanted to gain fame through mine.
00:36:55No more secrets, Dexter Hayes.
00:36:57It's time you finally learned who you really rejected.
00:37:02Mr. Reed is looking right at us.
00:37:04He's going to call us on stage.
00:37:06All right, this is it.
00:37:07He's going to announce that he's signed us to Reed Records.
00:37:10I want to introduce the heir to my billion dollar music empire.
00:37:15And the new CEO of Reed Records.
00:37:18My princess.
00:37:21And the light of my life.
00:37:23My daughter.
00:37:24Casey Reed.
00:37:29What?
00:37:35No.
00:37:43Casey.
00:38:00That's the Reed heiress?
00:38:02Holy shit.
00:38:03She's not a sugar baby.
00:38:04She's the daughter of billionaire music royalty.
00:38:07Scarlet Heart is delusional.
00:38:10Insulting the new CEO of Reed Records to her face?
00:38:13She just committed career suicide.
00:38:15Mr. Reed.
00:38:16Your gift.
00:38:17For the lady of the hour.
00:38:20That's millions of dollars of gold.
00:38:23Dad.
00:38:24This is too much.
00:38:25There's something from the old man.
00:38:26And now Dexter will see that you're worth more than your weight in gold.
00:38:30This cannot be happening.
00:38:32She's a nobody.
00:38:35I knew Casey was keeping secrets from me, but I didn't know she was hiding who she was.
00:38:41Ed Reed was never her sugar daddy.
00:38:43He was her father.
00:38:44This whole time she was with me for love, not fame.
00:38:48She tried to tell me the truth, and instead of trusting her, I left her for another woman.
00:38:53How could I be so blind?
00:39:01What suits you?
00:39:04Uh, the, um, guitar and, uh, CEO title.
00:39:08Why can't you just say you miss me?
00:39:11Casey, I, look, I just...
00:39:24I just...
00:39:25I still miss you.
00:39:34Ah.
00:39:36Shouldn't you be licking your fiancé's wounds?
00:39:39Knowing she just insulted the CEO of the most powerful music company has got to hurt.
00:39:45But, I mean, you of all people should know.
00:39:47Please, you have to believe me, okay?
00:39:49If you just let me explain, I promise...
00:39:51Explain what, Dexter?
00:39:52Why you want me back?
00:39:53After finding out I'm your boss?
00:39:57Or leaving me for Echo?
00:40:01No, no, look, that's, that's not why I'm here.
00:40:03If you just let me tell you, I, I...
00:40:06I mean, come on, Casey.
00:40:07I mean, you gotta understand, I...
00:40:09You're the one who lied to me.
00:40:11I lied?
00:40:11Yeah.
00:40:12And what would you call getting engaged to Scarlet after promising to put a ring on my finger?
00:40:16I didn't want any of that to happen!
00:40:19You have to believe me, please!
00:40:20I was just trying to...
00:40:22Look, I...
00:40:24Just tell me one thing, okay?
00:40:25I guess, why are you here?
00:40:27Are you here just...
00:40:27Is this just some royal way to get revenge?
00:40:30Tank my career?
00:40:34Oh, tank your career.
00:40:35I made his career.
00:40:38I loved you, Dexter.
00:40:41You might have found out who my father is today, but you still have no idea who I am.
00:40:46Wait.
00:40:50This...
00:40:51This is why you proposed to Scarlet, isn't it?
00:40:54Why you left me for dead.
00:40:59Sucked up to my dad, threw me to the curb for the fame, the fortune, the fans.
00:41:06No, no, please.
00:41:07No, no, no.
00:41:08Actually, I think it's time to make my first decision as the new CEO.
00:41:14Can I get everyone's attention, please?
00:41:18I hope everyone is having fun.
00:41:20Read Records will be ending its contract with Dexter Hayes and dropping him as an artist.
00:41:33Effective immediately.
00:41:34Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God!
00:41:40You know, I am so glad I never told you who I really was, because if I didn't, I might
00:41:46not have ever found out that you don't really love me for me.
00:41:49Casey, none of that is true, okay?
00:41:51None of this.
00:41:52I don't care about that.
00:41:53I've always loved you.
00:41:54Don't bother arguing with her anymore, Dexter.
00:41:57She may be rich, but she's just an arrogant nepo baby with no real talent.
00:42:02Scarlet is echo.
00:42:04She can produce...
00:42:05Wait, wait, Casey!
00:42:05She can get you to the top of the charts with or without Read Records.
00:42:10Dexter, you don't need her.
00:42:11She doesn't understand you like Scarlet does.
00:42:14Okay, Mom, Mom, stop.
00:42:16You're my mom, not my manager.
00:42:19All right?
00:42:20I'm done talking about this.
00:42:42I've known you for years
00:42:45I thought you'd stay the same
00:42:51All of those years
00:42:56I've broken in a blade
00:43:09I'm still missing you
00:43:13I'm still, I'm still, I'm still missing you
00:43:46I thought I was clear our relationship is over, Mr. Hayes.
00:43:48You're no longer welcome at Read Records
00:43:51I just came to pick up my equipment
00:43:55Casey's wrong about me
00:43:56I never gave up on us
00:43:57She's got another truth
00:44:00I don't think there's anything left to talk about, Dex
00:44:09Fine
00:44:10Fine
00:44:11Let's not talk
00:44:20What's wrong?
00:44:22Your fiancé not keeping you satisfied
00:44:27I've been doing too much thinking about my former assistant
00:44:33I've been doing too much thinking about my former assistant
00:44:35Not anymore
00:44:37I'm your former boss now
00:44:39In fact, here are your termination letters
00:44:46I don't give a fuck about the contract
00:44:48I don't give a shit about my career
00:44:50I just want you
00:44:51And I know that you want me to
00:44:54Don't act like you've forgotten
00:44:57What we had
00:44:59I've been trying to
00:45:01But being this close again
00:45:02It feels
00:45:05Impossible
00:45:06You're a lot like an instrument
00:45:09But you tremble every time we touch
00:45:16I don't care about the fans
00:45:18I don't give a shit about the tabloids
00:45:20I don't care what the record labels have to say
00:45:22If you tell me
00:45:23You want to be with me
00:45:26We'll be together
00:45:31We can tease each other all day
00:45:35Until you finally admit
00:45:37You
00:45:39Still
00:45:40Love me
00:46:04You're right
00:46:04I am like an instrument
00:46:06The way I let you play me
00:46:08After what you did
00:46:09Why would I trust you ever again?
00:46:12Listen to me
00:46:13I've been trying to tell you
00:46:14I do not want to be with Scarlet
00:46:17Hello?
00:46:18Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way
00:46:20Thank you
00:46:21Whoa, whoa, whoa
00:46:22Hold on
00:46:22Sasha Silver?
00:46:23I've been telling you for months
00:46:25The guy's a douchebag
00:46:27A douchebag with over a hundred million strings
00:46:30I mean, we have a Dexter Haye-sized hole to fill
00:46:34And he could be the next big thing
00:46:35It's not safe, Casey
00:46:36You don't need him
00:46:38No, no, no, no, no, no
00:46:39I don't think you, of all people
00:46:42Get to tell me what I need
00:46:44Casey
00:46:45Casey, Casey
00:46:48Daisy has every right
00:46:50To be angry with me
00:46:51After what I did
00:46:51I have to prove
00:46:53She can trust me again
00:47:05Perfect timing
00:47:06Make yourself comfortable
00:47:08Thank you for meeting me
00:47:09On such short notice
00:47:10Sasha generally doesn't like
00:47:11Women who speak too much
00:47:14I've made an exception for you
00:47:15Do you always refer to yourself in the third person?
00:47:19I don't know what that means
00:47:21But
00:47:22You want to hear one of Sasha's demos?
00:47:24They're a big hit online
00:47:26I'm very excited about a potential partnership
00:47:28Well
00:47:30I heard you'd be blown away
00:47:32Actually
00:47:34I was hoping for a live performance
00:47:35If you don't mind
00:47:36So many musicians out there
00:47:37Faking their music with AI
00:47:39You know
00:47:39Of course
00:47:42But
00:47:43You're not in a hurry
00:47:44Why don't we toast first
00:47:45To this potential partnership
00:48:04Shall we?
00:48:05How can I resist?
00:48:07I do love straight vodka
00:48:15But you know what I
00:48:17Actually
00:48:19Love even more than that
00:48:21What's that?
00:48:23Exposing
00:48:25Asshole pervs
00:48:26My hair
00:48:27What the fuck?
00:48:29You really think you can drug me?
00:48:31And then what?
00:48:32Force me to sign you to read records?
00:48:34Now you know who you're dealing with
00:48:37Not so fast
00:48:39You thought you could just walk in here
00:48:40And demand a live performance
00:48:41From the Sasha Silver?
00:48:43Do I look like a little bitch to you?
00:48:46Absolutely
00:48:46And a fraud
00:48:50I'll be sure no label will ever sign you
00:48:53No matter how talented you are
00:48:56I won't need a label to sign me
00:48:58Not when I can read records
00:48:59For myself
00:49:03Don't be shy Casey
00:49:04I'm just hoping you get ready
00:49:05The paparazzi will be here any minute
00:49:07To see my new mistress
00:49:08He'll plaster our photos
00:49:09All over the tabloids
00:49:11Everyone will see what a slut you are
00:49:13How you slept your way to the top
00:49:16Your poor father
00:49:18He's gonna have no choice
00:49:19But to hand you and your company over to me
00:49:22You're delusional
00:49:24Stay away from me
00:49:25I'm fine
00:49:26You don't tell Sasha
00:49:27Hey
00:49:29Get your fucking hands off
00:49:31What?
00:49:32I'll break your fucking hands
00:49:34Mr. Hayes
00:49:35Are you okay?
00:49:38I'm fine
00:49:42What the fuck Hayes?
00:49:44I could sue you for that
00:49:46I'd love to see you try sweetheart
00:49:48You're just a wash up addict
00:49:50And you do not have a leg to stand on
00:49:52Okay
00:49:57Okay I'm sorry
00:49:58Jesus
00:49:59We could have produced a sick ass record together
00:50:02You kind of wanted to defend this
00:50:04Used up slut
00:50:06I mean what the fuck
00:50:09Her name
00:50:10Is Casey Ring
00:50:12And she's the future
00:50:13Of the industry
00:50:14That you want so badly
00:50:16Fucking in
00:50:17Your career is dead
00:50:19Sasha
00:50:19I'm not sure of that
00:50:22Let's go
00:50:30Let's go
00:50:34Give me your hand
00:50:42Casey I've been telling you for months
00:50:44Sasha Silver is literally
00:50:45My business
00:50:46Is none of your concern
00:50:47If I didn't show up tonight
00:50:49What the hell do you think would have happened?
00:50:51Do you have any idea what he could have done to you?
00:50:53He could have raped you
00:50:54Yes
00:50:54Okay
00:50:55I know
00:50:57Newsflash
00:50:57I'm not your assistant
00:51:00Anymore
00:51:00So
00:51:01It's not your concern
00:51:02Where I am
00:51:03Or what I'm doing
00:51:04Okay
00:51:04So stop
00:51:07Following me
00:51:12The car is still fucking moving
00:51:15I'll stop following you
00:51:17The minute that you
00:51:18Stop making stupid
00:51:19Fucking decisions
00:51:22And when I've made up for all the danger
00:51:23I've put her in
00:51:26You're way
00:51:28Too interested
00:51:30In my personal life
00:51:32Dex
00:51:33Won't your fiance
00:51:34Be jealous
00:51:39I've been trying to tell you for weeks
00:51:42I did not
00:51:43Want
00:51:44To marry
00:51:45Scarlet
00:51:47You don't fight him
00:51:48With
00:51:48And now you're really starting to piss me off
00:51:51Isn't that the point?
00:52:02So
00:52:04What am I supposed to do?
00:52:06Pretend she doesn't exist
00:52:09And be
00:52:09The pop star's
00:52:11Secret side piece again
00:52:15I should push him away
00:52:17But
00:52:17I can't deny how much I miss his touch
00:52:19You were never the side piece
00:52:23And you know it
00:52:33Boss
00:52:34I have news
00:52:36Thank you for your help today
00:52:39Dexter
00:52:41Please
00:52:42Stop following me
00:52:46Or else it's gonna get harder and harder
00:52:49To walk away
00:52:59Great timing
00:53:01As always
00:53:02Why are you even here?
00:53:04Done what you asked
00:53:04News of Sasha Silver's fraudulence
00:53:06And drug abuse
00:53:07Have been leaked to the press
00:53:08No label
00:53:09Studio
00:53:10Or brand
00:53:10Will go anywhere near
00:53:11His net worth plummeted to zero
00:53:13Good
00:53:14Buy all the rice
00:53:15To his music
00:53:18I'm gonna give that
00:53:18Casey as a gift
00:53:24I heard what happened with Sasha
00:53:26Now that was way too risky
00:53:28Casey
00:53:28Look I'm far from Dexter's biggest fan
00:53:31But that could have gotten real ugly
00:53:33If he hadn't shown up
00:53:34I could have handled Sasha
00:53:35There was also a huge leak in the press
00:53:37All of Sasha Silver's
00:53:39Dirty laundry
00:53:40Head out for everyone to see
00:53:42He's been
00:53:42What do you kids call it?
00:53:43Cancelled
00:53:44Who took him down?
00:53:47Dexter Hayes
00:53:52He even bought the rights to Sasha's music
00:53:55He can't sing anything anywhere
00:53:57Or get sued to hell and back
00:53:59Dex took down Sasha Silver?
00:54:02For me?
00:54:03Maybe
00:54:04He's not as bad as I thought
00:54:06Or maybe he should stop interfering himself with my life
00:54:14The world famous music producer Echo
00:54:16Is set to finally reveal their identity
00:54:18At the legendary Universal Music Awards tomorrow night
00:54:23Scarlet's getting desperate
00:54:24She's trying to convince the world she's Echo
00:54:26Before it can expose her lies
00:54:28She can't keep up the act forever
00:54:30Sooner or later Dexter will realize she can't even hold a tune
00:54:34Much less produce a hit track
00:54:36Scarlet is nothing if she's not Echo
00:54:38She knows Dexter wouldn't look at her twice
00:54:40Let alone marry her
00:54:42If she wasn't pretending to be a genius producer
00:54:44I don't know how she thinks she's going to get away with it
00:54:49I think it's time
00:54:50The world finds out who the real Echo is
00:54:57You want to go to the UMAs as Echo?
00:55:00They've invited me every year and I've always refused
00:55:02I've let this scam go on long enough
00:55:05It's time the world finds out the truth about Scarlet Heart
00:55:08The world
00:55:09Or Dexter
00:55:13This isn't about him
00:55:17He made his bed when he proposed to Scarlet
00:55:19Well my daughter deserves all the recognition of the world
00:55:23But if you're going to go as Echo
00:55:24Oh you're going to do it right
00:55:27With the best equipment money can buy
00:55:29Huh?
00:55:32I want people to see my princess
00:55:34For the queen that she is
00:55:39Invest at
00:55:49Mrs. Hayes
00:55:55It's so good to see you again
00:55:59How's Dexter?
00:56:00Engaged
00:56:01Yes
00:56:02My future daughter-in-law is performing at the Universal Music Awards tomorrow
00:56:07And I'd like to gift her something to mark the occasion
00:56:10So none of these mass-produced guitars
00:56:13She's a musical genius
00:56:15We need something one of a kind just like her
00:56:18Of course
00:56:19I have the perfect gift for her
00:56:21A custom Fender Signature Stratocaster
00:56:30Please don't touch that
00:56:31Those instruments are only for our VIP clientele
00:56:35Yeah
00:56:36It's you
00:56:37Get this career-sabotaging stalker out of here
00:56:42Excuse me?
00:56:43You're disturbing our VIP customers
00:56:46I have to ask you to leave
00:56:47Now
00:56:52I'm the CEO of Reed Records
00:56:56I have just as much of a right to be here as you
00:56:59Because of your Nepo baby connections
00:57:01We all know money can't buy talent
00:57:05Tell that to Scarlett
00:57:06Excuse me?
00:57:08I am Dexter Hayes' fiancé and creative collaborator
00:57:12And you don't really know anything about music
00:57:15Yeah
00:57:16You're right
00:57:18In that case
00:57:19You should have this
00:57:39Oops
00:57:40Slipped out of my hands
00:57:42My bad
00:57:45Are you insane?
00:57:47You just destroyed a million dollar guitar
00:57:50Here it is
00:57:51Take this woman away
00:57:53Hold on just one second
00:57:55Dexter Hayes?
00:57:56Oh my god
00:57:58I need to speak to the owner about an offer
00:58:01You need to set that up for me?
00:58:02Yes
00:58:02Of course Mr. Hayes
00:58:04Just kidding
00:58:09It's all yours now
00:58:19Scarlett
00:58:20Scarlett
00:58:20Ignore this wannabe musician
00:58:23We'll find a better option
00:58:30Like this one
00:58:32Beyonce used this on her last album
00:58:34This instrument is worthy of Echo
00:58:37The genius producer
00:58:39Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
00:58:41Actually, actually
00:58:43This guitar is no longer available
00:58:45In fact, my entire collection
00:58:48Is on hold for the new owner
00:58:50I'm gonna just
00:58:54My apologies
00:58:54My apologies
00:58:55My apologies
00:58:55Apologies
00:58:56No, no, no, no, no, no, no
00:58:57We saw it first
00:58:59Look, look
00:59:00We just want the one guitar
00:59:01I'm sure we can come to a generous agreement
00:59:04You could pay all you want for the guitar
00:59:06But it's not gonna stop Scarlett
00:59:08From choking
00:59:09On the stage
00:59:13How dare you
00:59:15You little bitch
00:59:21That's enough
00:59:25Hi, Jesse
00:59:28Are you okay?
00:59:31Dixter
00:59:31She just insulted your Beyonce
00:59:34You need to do something
00:59:36Mom
00:59:37Do you really want to have a conversation
00:59:39Right here and now
00:59:40About the current status of my engagement?
00:59:43Scarlett's talent as a producer
00:59:44Is the reason you're as famous
00:59:46As you are, Dixter
00:59:48The least you could do
00:59:50Is show her a little respect
00:59:53You know what?
00:59:54Actually
00:59:54I'm sorry, you're right
00:59:56I should show respect
00:59:58To the one person
00:59:59Who's always been there for me
01:00:03Please ring up the guitar
01:00:04For Ms. Hunt
01:00:05I knew you would support me
01:00:06Mr. Hayes, it's not for sale
01:00:09You know, why don't you ask the new owner
01:00:12How much it costs
01:00:13And I'll pay it
01:00:14Whatever it is
01:00:14Right here and now
01:00:16Ms. Reed
01:00:18As the new owner of the store
01:00:19How much would you like to charge the guitar for?
01:00:22Wait, what?
01:00:26I'm sorry
01:00:27I'm the new owner
01:00:30Consider a late birthday gift
01:00:32For my former assistant
01:00:33You did this for me
01:00:36You really think I need a music store?
01:00:39Well, as CEO of Reed Records
01:00:41You probably don't know
01:00:42But from someone who cares about you a lot
01:00:45Why the hell not?
01:00:47Dixter!
01:00:48Are you insane?
01:00:50She's not even a real musician
01:00:52And you gave her the entire store?
01:00:55You're gonna make us pay her for a guitar?
01:00:59Oh, it's okay
01:01:01Scarlet could have it for free
01:01:02As long as she shows us the big hit that she's working on
01:01:08Casey
01:01:09I am not stooping to your level
01:01:11And besides, we're late for hair and makeup
01:01:14I will talk to you about this later
01:01:18You will regret this
01:01:20Casey has done nothing but ruin you
01:01:23She's just a pretty face
01:01:25With no talent to back it up
01:01:27Thanks, Mom
01:01:34I'm not your assistant anymore
01:01:36It's Miss Reed
01:01:38And I'm the CEO of Reed Records
01:01:40Two
01:01:41My birthday was months ago
01:01:43Actually, the night that you proposed to Scarlet
01:01:46So your gift means nothing
01:01:50Did you know I was actually gonna tell you my secret that night?
01:01:53What secret?
01:01:57Secret?
01:01:58Hold on, what are you talking about?
01:01:59What secret?
01:02:03Should I tell him the truth?
01:02:05No
01:02:06That I wanted to spend every single day of the rest of my life with you
01:02:13But not anymore
01:02:16I don't need you
01:02:27Don't pay attention to anything she just said
01:02:29I want you to get the best equipment and the best instruments
01:02:31To her collection
01:02:33Yes, sir
01:02:36Oh, one more thing
01:02:38She's fired
01:02:41Yes, sir
01:02:42Thank you
01:02:45Dexter, you can't do this
01:02:46I love you
01:03:00Mr. Hayes
01:03:01Ms. Hart
01:03:02You're on M5
01:03:02The broadcast will begin live
01:03:04Thank you
01:03:07Did you hear that?
01:03:08Millions of fans are gonna be hearing your song
01:03:11It's exactly what you deserve
01:03:12The world needs to hear your talent
01:03:16I can't believe I'm about to perform on the Universal Music Awards stage
01:03:21All right, guys, it's time, let's go
01:03:24Scarlet!
01:03:38You can't start the show without me
01:03:44I knew you'd make it
01:03:45Of course she did
01:03:46Her daddy probably got her a ticket after she cried about being left out
01:03:50Dexter, Scarlet
01:03:51You know, I'm actually surprised you showed up
01:03:54I thought it would be too painful for you to witness people with actual talent perform
01:03:59When you yourself have none
01:04:01Mmm
01:04:02I'm getting a lecture about talent from you
01:04:06Oh, guess we'll see who's real and who's fake tonight
01:04:10Wake a leg, Scarlet
01:04:12Or should I say, Echo
01:04:15Don't choke
01:04:17Hope you don't choke
01:04:40The playback's down
01:04:42The track's gone, completely white
01:04:44You have another version of the track, right?
01:04:50I didn't even make that version
01:04:51I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me one of her reject tracks
01:04:55Go fix this
01:04:56Now
01:04:59This is bad
01:05:00All right, everyone's just out there staring at us
01:05:02We're gonna burn the broadcast
01:05:04And the label's gonna drop us
01:05:05What are we gonna do?
01:05:08I have an idea
01:05:11You're Echo, right?
01:05:23Yes
01:05:24It's true
01:05:25I'm Echo
01:05:26The award-winning producer
01:05:28And Dexter Hayes' long-time mystery collaborator
01:05:31Then prove it
01:05:33Go ahead
01:05:34Why don't you mix us a live track right here, right now?
01:05:38Come on
01:05:38You're a genius producer, right?
01:05:40I mean
01:05:41This is your chance to show off your talents
01:05:43I mean, the whole world is watching
01:05:46I don't know what any of these buttons even do
01:05:49This bitch is trying to sabotage me
01:05:51I must have another file I can play
01:05:53I'll just make it look like I'm mixing in real time
01:05:56Of course
01:05:58Watch me work my magic
01:06:17And that's how it's done
01:06:19Show must go on
01:06:21Nice try
01:06:22Scarlet's proven herself enough
01:06:24You can stop with the jealous witch hunt now
01:06:27Okay, can you boost the treble?
01:06:29On the EQ in the middle
01:06:30And can you hand from stage left to stage right real quick?
01:06:36Yeah
01:06:42Damn, I guess you're gonna have to do it the old-fashioned way
01:06:46That means recording the instruments live, looping the...
01:06:49Don't listen to her
01:06:51She doesn't know what it takes to make a track of my caliber
01:06:54And this isn't the first time one of Dexter's tracks have been corrupted
01:06:58If I didn't know any better
01:06:59I think you were trying to sabotage me
01:07:02Scarlet, Scarlet
01:07:03Why would Casey do that?
01:07:04For real
01:07:04Okay, you're...
01:07:05You're Echo
01:07:06Okay, so just fix the track
01:07:10Yeah
01:07:11Ah, come on Echo
01:07:13What, you have performance anxiety?
01:07:22Scarlet, you are our only hope now
01:07:25You have to fix this
01:07:27I could, if I had something other than this shoddy
01:07:30Reed Records music equipment to work with
01:07:33Casey, if you're such a genius, why don't you fix it?
01:07:36Oh, I actually would, gladly
01:07:38But it's actually your big night, so
01:07:40Why don't you show everyone the brilliant Echo
01:07:43And how you made Dexter Hayes a superstar?
01:07:46Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo! Echo!
01:07:51Just your Echo, okay?
01:07:53Record some mini instruments, lay them down, make a track
01:07:56It's that simple, you know how to do this
01:07:58You really think your fiancé is going to be able to fix this show?
01:08:02I mean, if she goes down, you go down with her
01:08:07Casey shouldn't even be here
01:08:08I can't let her expose me
01:08:10Not when I'm so close to marrying Dexter and becoming a pop legend
01:08:36Is this part of her process?
01:08:38It would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music
01:09:01Oh my god, is Scarlet Heart tone deaf?
01:09:05Come on Echo, show them your talent, keep going
01:09:08Get off the stage, you're ruining the UMAs
01:09:14Alright, look
01:09:17It's done
01:09:19You're really going to give up that easily, Dex?
01:09:22You're going to throw it all away because of Scarlet?
01:09:24Yeah, I am
01:09:25That whole career that I fought for for however, how many years?
01:09:30Yeah
01:09:33Because you know what?
01:09:35Someone that I was close to once told me
01:09:38That there's a lot more to life than just your career
01:09:41And who knows, maybe I can get a cool new gig
01:09:44As a personal assistant for the new CEO of Reed Records
01:09:49Dexter, stop it with those awful jokes
01:09:52Your entire life's work is on the line
01:09:55Mom
01:09:56You heard the track, okay?
01:09:58There's no saving the song
01:09:59Now it's over
01:10:00It's over
01:10:15Well
01:10:16I guess it's time for the next act of this show
01:10:20No, no
01:10:21There's no, there's, there's no other
01:10:23Hey, it's time to let a real musician take the stage
01:10:34What the hell do you think you're doing?
01:10:36Mom, mom, stop
01:10:39You heard of Scarlet?
01:10:41I mean, you can stay unless you want to go down as the worst performer in UMA history
01:10:46If I couldn't mix a whole live track, what makes you think you could?
01:10:50For one, I know what I'm doing
01:10:53And if you don't?
01:10:55Will you step down as Reed Records CEO if you fail?
01:10:59Happily
01:11:03Everyone, we're about to watch the Reed Records CEO dig her own grave
01:11:08It seems like Echo is having technical difficulties with her track
01:11:12Since we're live, let's make something new
01:11:15Dexter, sing me the first line of your song, just your voice
01:11:19I know
01:11:20I know
01:11:27I am not the kind for a show
01:11:34This is not a one-time thing
01:11:38Lights are low, but I still will
01:11:42This morning's got a sting
01:11:46Good
01:11:50Now let's make a hit
01:11:59Let's fucking go
01:12:01Wait, what is she doing?
01:12:19I mean, you produced this, right?
01:12:21So do you want to go ahead and take over?
01:12:23I can't, I don't have much
01:12:25You don't need anything except for a band and raw talent
01:12:29I mean, you are a musician, right?
01:12:35Since when is Casey Reed a musical genius?
01:12:37That sound, it's familiar
01:12:40I'm not the kind for a show
01:12:45This is not a one-time thing
01:12:48Stop! Stop it!
01:13:01Casey?
01:13:04You're Echo
01:13:05Does this mean Casey Reed
01:13:07Is Echo?
01:13:09This is my song
01:13:11She just ripped it off!
01:13:12Who's stealing now, Scarlet?
01:13:14Don't listen to her
01:13:17I'm Echo
01:13:20I didn't even make that version
01:13:22I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer
01:13:24To send me one of her reject tracks
01:13:25Go fix this
01:13:30Now everyone knows the truth
01:13:36She's the one that saved the song
01:13:37No, that was me!
01:13:39I already did all the work
01:13:40She's just taking the credit
01:13:42I had to mix the track live, Dexter
01:13:45So that makes it my intellectual property
01:13:48You're welcome to put it on your next album
01:13:50But you're gonna have to pay me for it
01:13:52Where do I sign?
01:13:53I don't think you could afford my fee
01:13:56I think you might just be surprised
01:14:00$200 million
01:14:01$200 million?
01:14:03For one song?
01:14:04That's more than our entire album deal
01:14:06Are you insane?
01:14:08And I want my name to be credited
01:14:12Bad deal, Miss Reed
01:14:14And one last thing
01:14:16I want a public apology
01:14:18From Scarlet Hart and Amelia Hayes
01:14:21That's ridiculous!
01:14:22Why should we apologize to you?
01:14:25I mean, you don't have to
01:14:26I could just go ahead and leave
01:14:27And then Scarlet could finish the album
01:14:29And Dexter's career could crash and burn
01:14:31So, what will it be?
01:14:38The clock is ticking
01:14:41I was wrong about you
01:14:43You saved Dexter's song
01:14:47I'm sorry
01:14:50And you?
01:14:52Do it
01:14:53Apologize to her
01:14:54That bitch!
01:14:56Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:14:58She ruined everything!
01:15:00Come on, let's hear it
01:15:01Tell the world the truth
01:15:02Scarlet?
01:15:03Fine!
01:15:04I'm not Echo
01:15:05I pretended
01:15:06And I never wrote or produced
01:15:08Any of Dexter's songs
01:15:09They are happy?
01:15:12They are happy?
01:15:15Wait
01:15:16That's not what I really meant
01:15:18Dexter
01:15:20She manipulated me
01:15:22You're still my fiance
01:15:22You believe
01:15:23Scarlet, you are exactly
01:15:25What we all see you
01:15:26Fucked plot
01:15:27And you're a damn liar
01:15:30Casey
01:15:30Is the one
01:15:31Who built my career
01:15:32Hell, she's the one
01:15:33Who saved the damn song
01:15:36She's the only one
01:15:37Who ever cared about me
01:15:38Or loved me
01:15:41Our engagement
01:15:42Is off
01:15:43And so is the record
01:16:06Please don't cancel the album
01:16:08The album
01:16:09Terminating your contract
01:16:11And blacklisting you
01:16:12From the industry
01:16:12Career's over
01:16:19Got yourself a deal case
01:16:34If we're not here for long
01:16:40Tell me where would we belong
01:16:45My back is pressed against the wall
01:16:51I need you to know
01:16:54I'm not afraid to fall
01:16:57Your name's on fire
01:17:00In my veins
01:17:03It's burning for my chains
01:17:08Who are you to tell me why
01:17:14Who am I to live like
01:17:19This mirror shows a thousand places
01:17:22But another thing can burn
01:17:28Who are you to tell me why
01:18:21Miss Reed, the whole world wants to know
01:18:23Are you the award winning genius music producer Echo
01:18:27I think everyone saw the broadcast
01:18:29And my work speaks for itself
01:18:31You are a revolution in the music industry
01:18:33And we can't wait to see what you do next Echo
01:18:39You arrogant fucking whore
01:18:42You ruined everything
01:18:46Dexter was gonna be mine
01:18:49I was gonna be the biggest pop star
01:18:51In the world
01:19:00But you had to get in my way
01:19:05That won't happen again
01:19:06Percy
01:19:08Dex, no!
01:19:20Dex, stay with me
01:19:22Oh my god
01:19:27Hey, hey, hey
01:19:29You've been here all night
01:19:33You still love him, don't you?
01:19:36Dexter saved my life
01:19:37But
01:19:39As soon as I thank him
01:19:40We can move on
01:19:42You know, if you say so
01:19:43But
01:19:44Have you stopped and asked yourself
01:19:45Why he risked his own life to save you?
01:19:48It doesn't matter now
01:19:50Things will never return back
01:19:51To how they were before
01:19:53Casey
01:19:55Dexter was an absolute idiot
01:19:56For betraying you
01:19:57Okay?
01:19:58I said
01:19:59But without him
01:20:00I would have lost my baby girl
01:20:03And those two songs
01:20:04You two produced together
01:20:05They made millions
01:20:07Believe in love
01:20:08Your love
01:20:10Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it
01:20:12I mean
01:20:13A love like that burns bright
01:20:14But it doesn't last forever
01:20:19Clearly Dexter never stopped caring about you
01:20:21Hmm?
01:20:22Maybe your love story isn't over
01:20:24The other Reed Records executives
01:20:27Want Dexter to headline the big festival
01:20:29And sign him to the label again
01:20:31You know, if our CEO approves
01:20:39Dexter is sleeping
01:20:40But you can see him now
01:20:46Don't be afraid to tell him how you feel, princess
01:21:06It was a close call
01:21:08One centimeter to the right
01:21:09He could have punctured his lung
01:21:12If Dex couldn't sing anymore
01:21:13His life might as well be over
01:21:15Oh, I'm hopefully
01:21:17He'll recover
01:21:18But for now
01:21:19All he need is rest
01:21:21That's it
01:21:22Okay
01:21:29What is wrong with you, Dexter?
01:21:33How could you do something so stupid?
01:21:37If you don't make it through this
01:21:39I will never forgive you
01:21:42Never
01:21:46Bye
01:21:46Bye
01:21:52My God, you're beautiful
01:21:57Why are you still mad at me?
01:22:00I think I have every right to be
01:22:06Casey, I
01:22:11I miss you
01:22:13I miss him too
01:22:14But everything we've put each other through
01:22:17Can we really be together again?
01:22:20You saved my life
01:22:22And
01:22:25I will be forever grateful
01:22:29And in return
01:22:31I'll give you your song for free
01:22:32And we can go our separate ways
01:22:35We can end on a high note
01:22:36No
01:22:37No
01:22:37No
01:22:39Is that really what you want?
01:22:42To walk away from all this forever?
01:22:51Look, there's something I have to show you
01:22:53Something I've been trying to show you
01:23:08That horrible night when I chose Scarlet
01:23:12I only did it because I had to
01:23:14They forced you to choose her
01:23:16I was trying to save your life
01:23:18Okay
01:23:18I would never
01:23:20Ever
01:23:20Ever do that to you
01:23:22I'd choose you a million times over
01:23:24And I knew that I'd break your heart
01:23:26And I knew that I would
01:23:27Lose you
01:23:28And I
01:23:30But I'd rather risk that
01:23:31Than losing your life forever
01:23:38When I said I loved you, Dexter
01:23:40I meant it
01:23:42I don't want to be with anyone else
01:23:45Me neither
01:23:49You're my little muse
01:23:54My pop star
01:23:58Which
01:24:00Reminds me
01:24:03Reed Records
01:24:04Would like to formally
01:24:06Invite you to headline the Wildlight Festival
01:24:10The Wildlight Festival is the biggest music stage
01:24:12In the world
01:24:13You saved their CEO
01:24:15You deserve it
01:24:16You're the reason I sing
01:24:19You're the reason I live
01:24:20I don't want to songwrite or do any of this
01:24:22If I don't have you
01:24:23You
01:24:25You're my world, Casey
01:24:28I know I've written a lot of songs, okay
01:24:30I know
01:24:32But
01:24:32None of them compare to how I feel
01:24:35I don't want to be with you
01:24:36For just who you are
01:24:37Or what you have
01:24:38Or any of that stuff
01:24:40I don't even want to sing
01:24:41Or have this career
01:24:42I'd give it up in a second
01:24:43If it meant just being with you
01:24:45That's all I need
01:24:48We do it together
01:24:54I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes
01:24:56Okay
01:25:00I want us to do this together
01:25:04I love you
01:25:07I love you too
01:25:21This is the biggest crowd I've ever seen in my life
01:25:26Then you better give them one hell of a show
01:25:30Yes, ma'am
01:25:40I wrote this song with Casey Reed
01:25:43Who is my echo
01:25:45But more importantly
01:25:46She is undoubtedly the love of my life
01:25:52So I hope you enjoy
01:26:15Just let me know
01:26:18Every time I remember to smile
01:26:23I imagine a world where together
01:26:37This goes on
01:26:41There's stuff in the stockings
01:26:44But I am still walking
01:26:47And you're all through
01:26:51Was the fool who I hated
01:26:54Now I'm recreating
01:26:56Every time I look at the moon fall
01:27:01I dream of the night
01:27:03It's lost forever
01:27:07Soon you'll see
01:27:09That it's time for you and me
01:27:15Cause the band is so far
01:27:19We just let go
01:27:24Every time I look in your eyes
01:27:29I forget where I am
01:27:31Just a little
01:27:33Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:27:38I dream of a night
01:27:41It's lost forever
01:27:42Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:27:48Dicking and talking
01:27:50But I will be watching
01:27:55Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:27:58The mirror of heaven
01:28:00My heart is open
01:28:02Every time I remember to smile
01:28:07I imagine a world where together
01:28:19And I'll see you next time.
