00:00:30I chose to stay invisible because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes, the rock star
00:00:36I secretly built from the ground up. I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter. We share the same music,
00:00:45but never the same spotlight.
00:00:48Will you spit in my mouth?
00:01:00Dex, we're backstage. Someone might see us.
00:01:06I am so done hiding you.
00:01:09I have no idea what you do to me, Kate. It's how you make me feel.
00:01:12You are my favorite song.
00:01:20I lose control.
00:01:23My little moon.
00:01:26I want you, Dex. I need you.
00:01:34Good.
00:01:36And 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.
00:01:45And I'm going to kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:48I'm going to claim every inch of you.
00:01:51Note by note.
00:01:52In front of the whole world.
00:02:09Hey, Case, 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.
00:02:24Once 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.
00:02:33Thank you.
00:02:35You are going to be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:50I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:01I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:08You are going to be my next time.
00:03:10I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:15I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:25¡Y ahora, para la estrella de nuestro show,
00:03:29el mundo lector de la mayor popstar
00:03:31y mi suena, Dexter Hayes!
00:03:37¿Vale para mí? ¿Vale aquí?
00:03:42Dexter Hayes es mi ticket
00:03:50¡Suscríbete al canal!
00:04:14We've got a really special one for y'all tonight. Hope you enjoy.
00:04:26Shit! The backing mix is corrupted. I can't let Dex's show get ruined. Echo can fix this.
00:04:36Are you here? I 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 I'll be right back.
00:04:55There. Your 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. You made him the star he is.
00:05:12I'm telling him tonight. But for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:17Oh, that's my girl.
00:05:20When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms.
00:05:44Oh, my God. These are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs.
00:05:47Is Kasey Echo?
00:05:58Time to save Dex's concert.
00:06:00Play that song! Play that song!
00:06:03God, where's Kasey? She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:06The show is a disaster. The fans are waiting. Can you please find her? I need her.
00:06:10No, Dexter. I'm the one you need.
00:06:14What?
00:06:22Mrs. Echo's number?
00:06:27Are you her? Are 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.
00:06:48Kasey has been hiding another man.
00:06:56All those secret phone calls, dodged questions.
00:06:59Kasey was cheating on me this whole time?
00:07:02Dexter, I'm so sorry. I would never, never do this to you.
00:07:08Dexter, I'm so sorry.
00:07:17Wait, didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:07:20Uh, and we're back.
00:07:22Well, I wrote this song for the love of my life.
00:07:27At least I thought so.
00:07:37Get ready, Dex.
00:07:39And next, your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:07:47I'm a man, I'm a man.
00:07:52I'm a man.
00:07:54I'm a man.
00:08:16¡Gracias!
00:08:34¡Gracias!
00:09:07¡Gracias!
00:09:12¡Gracias!
00:09:13How could Casey do this to me?
00:09:19Everyone give it up for Dexter Hayes!
00:09:22¡No!
00:09:25¡No!
00:09:34He prometed que me llamara a la escena
00:09:36para anunciar nuestra relación
00:09:39Yo lo amé
00:09:40y ella me mató
00:09:53Oh my god
00:09:54Dexi
00:09:55Oh my god
00:09:56Is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:59Yes
00:10:00Oh my god
00:10:05Dexi
00:10:06Yes
00:10:08Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together
00:10:12I thought Dexter loved me, trusted me
00:10:17No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet
00:10:20But she made my career
00:10:22And Casey betrayed me
00:10:27It was all a lie
00:10:31Alright
00:10:31I can play along with his engagement
00:10:34And I can move on from the woman who broke my heart
00:10:45Hey
00:10:47Casey
00:10:57You promised me
00:11:00That you'd tell the world about us tonight
00:11:03But instead
00:11:04You propose
00:11:05And put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger
00:11:09Casey, you gave me no choice
00:11:12I gave you everything
00:11:16I loved you
00:11:17Do you love her?
00:11:20I owe her
00:11:22Okay, I owe her
00:11:23Alright, I don't
00:11:25You owe her?
00:11:27Scarlet 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
00:11:39What are you talking about?
00:11:41What are you talking about?
00:11:42Scarlet
00:11:43Is Echo
00:11:50You think
00:11:52Scarlet Heart
00:11:53Is Echo?
00:11:55Well, I know she is
00:11:56You know what?
00:11:57I'll never be able to
00:11:58Thank her enough for everything she's done for me
00:12:01And I feel like this is a good start
00:12:05How could you believe her lies?
00:12:08Come on, all you do is lie
00:12:12You know, I don't even know who you are anymore
00:12:15Is this what you wanted all along?
00:12:17To be a music industry power couple?
00:12:21To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:25He could have had that with me
00:12:27This is all you ever really cared about
00:12:31Isn't it?
00:12:34Not loyalty
00:12:35Just
00:12:37Your music
00:12:39What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:43This
00:12:45Is my notebook
00:12:47Full of songs that I wrote
00:12:48For Dexter's first triple platinum album
00:12:51That's my notebook
00:12:53How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:55I'm a musical genius
00:12:57And you're just
00:12:58Dexter's little errand girl
00:13:01Give it back
00:13:02Dexter, she cut me
00:13:05See what has gotten into you?
00:13:07I don't... I know who you are anymore
00:13:10Dexie, baby
00:13:11I know all about girls like her
00:13:14They want fame and money without really ever having to work for it
00:13:17She's taking advantage of you
00:13:20She has been for years
00:13:22Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this
00:13:26Scarlet is not Echo
00:13:27Then tell me why I shouldn't
00:13:29Okay?
00:13:29Why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:34Go wait in the car
00:13:35Please
00:13:40Casey
00:13:46Look, I know that you've been hiding things
00:13:48So, please just...
00:13:50Just tell me the truth
00:13:51Okay, right now
00:13:53Or we'll lose us forever
00:14:01Please
00:14:02Please
00:14:10The truth doesn't matter anymore
00:14:13You don't trust me anyway
00:14:20We're over
00:14:22Dex
00:14:25Goodbye
00:14:26Forever
00:14:27Forever
00:14:46The hottest rock star on the planet is officially off the market
00:14:51Dexter Hayes
00:14:52Popped the question
00:14:53Up and coming singer
00:14:54Scarlet Hart tonight
00:14:55And she said yes
00:15:02Dad
00:15:04I gave Dex everything
00:15:05I made his career
00:15:07But...
00:15:08He doesn't want me
00:15:10He never did
00:15:11What happened princess?
00:15:13Scarlet Hart
00:15:14She stole him
00:15:16And now she's trying to steal my identity
00:15:19I'll come get you
00:15:24Tacey
00:15:25Tacey, where are you?
00:15:36Looks 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?
00:15:45Let me go
00:15:46Don't worry Scarlet
00:15:48We won't hurt you
00:15:49We're your friends too
00:15:51We've only shook Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Hart
00:15:54We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson
00:15:58We saw you kissing Dexter backstage
00:16:02You're trying to steal him from his soul mate
00:16:05I wasn't stealing him
00:16:08We were in love
00:16:10Or...
00:16:10I thought we were
00:16:12We'll see about that, won't we?
00:16:14The only way you'll live tonight
00:16:18Is if Dexter chooses to save you
00:16:25Who the hell is everybody?
00:16:29Dressing room
00:16:30Come alone
00:16:32Choose to save Scarlet Hart
00:16:34And 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?
00:16:49So she never left a concert
00:16:50Get back to the concert hall now
00:16:54Dexter 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 fiance?
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?
00:17:14Our precious Dexter
00:17:17Soiled by a dirty star fucker
00:17:20Girls like you don't deserve him
00:17:22You don't deserve to live
00:17:24No one knows what the real Echo looks like
00:17:27So, if Casey dies
00:17:29Then the truth dies with her
00:17:32That's not true!
00:17:34First you steal my identity
00:17:35Now you're trying to get me murdered?
00:17:37You're psychotic!
00:17:39Oh, don't worry Casey
00:17:40If you die today Dex and I will make a song about you
00:17:43And maybe it'll even be the lead single on our new album
00:17:47You're crazier than they are
00:17:49Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:56Casey!
00:17:56Dexter!
00:18:03Dexter!
00:18:04Casey!
00:18:05Dex! Dexter!
00:18:07Dexter! Dexter help me!
00:18:08They hit me
00:18:09And then they tied me up
00:18:11And now they're trying to kill me
00:18:14Okay guys, let's
00:18:16Let's just put the guns down, okay?
00:18:18We can't do that Dexter
00:18:20We're your biggest fans
00:18:23We're doing this for you
00:18:24Okay, well if you love me
00:18:27Alright, you'll put the gun down
00:18:29And then let these two go, please
00:18:31No, that's not how this works
00:18:34Dexie, you would be nothing without Echo
00:18:36We're engaged now, you can't let me die
00:18:40Dex, all the love we ever had
00:18:42All the memories, all 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, Dexter Hayes?
00:18:59They said if I told you Scarlet, then they both die
00:19:02I can save Casey, but I have to break her heart
00:19:07Which one really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:16You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:19And you loved him?
00:19:21You leeched off him for half a decade
00:19:25If that's what you really think, Dex
00:19:26Go ahead, make your choice
00:19:28Choose now or they both die
00:19:30Dexter, Dexter, please
00:19:33Think of everything I've done for you
00:19:35You dumped her, you chose me
00:19:37Don't let them murder me
00:19:39That's enough
00:19:40We're pulling the trigger in three
00:19:43Two
00:19:45One
00:19:45Okay, okay, okay
00:19:46I can't risk them killing Casey
00:19:49Scarlet, alright?
00:19:51I choose Scarlet
00:19:56Dexter, I'm gonna faint
00:19:59I was so scared
00:20:00He chose Scarlet?
00:20:02Good choice, cheating whores deserve to die
00:20:06Now wait a minute, you told me that-
00:20:07You made your choice, Dexter Hayes
00:20:10Now you get to be the one who saved your soulmate
00:20:13And we'll take care of your scandalous side piece
00:20:16No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:20:23I guess this is the end
00:20:31Goodbye, Dexter
00:20:33Put the gun down!
00:20:36Put the gun down!
00:20:37Goodbye, Dexter
00:20:39Hey, throw up the gun!
00:20:50Let's go, let's go, let's go
00:20:52Okay, okay, okay
00:21:00It's gonna be okay
00:21:01Okay?
00:21:02You left me to die!
00:21:04And for the record, I never needed your money!
00:21:07I was right to walk away!
00:21:10Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made!
00:21:13Look, Casey, you don't understand, alright? They were gonna make me-
00:21:16I'm-
00:21:17Done!
00:21:19Living in your shadow, Dex!
00:21:21Goodbye!
00:21:27Casey, Casey!
00:21:29Hey!
00:21:36Casey!
00:21:38Casey, stop!
00:21:39Please, stop!
00:21:40Please, please!
00:21:40Where are you gonna go?
00:21:42Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:44You should be asking yourself that same question!
00:21:47Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone!
00:21:50You're delusional!
00:21:51He doesn't need you, he has Echo!
00:21:54Yeah, sure he does!
00:21:57Fame really has changed you, Dexter 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!
00:22:19You chose her and you left me for dead!
00:22:22No, Casey, you don't understand, I was trying to-
00:22:50That's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:55So sorry I didn't come sooner, baby girl.
00:23:00You're here now.
00:23:02Take me home.
00:23:12Take me home.
00:23:33Kayshay!
00:23:36Kayshay!
00:23:38Kayshay!
00:23:39Kayshay!
00:23:39Kayshay!
00:23:39Let me explain!
00:23:44Scarlett.
00:23:45Mrs Hayes.
00:23:47You should have seen it.
00:23:48I 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.
00:23:59And 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.
00:24:11I thought Casey loved me.
00:24:14But the whole time, she was in bed with the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:18Yeah.
00:24:23Forget him, princess.
00:24:25Hmm?
00:24:26You are much too talented to be running some rock stars errands.
00:24:30How could I be so blind?
00:24:35Three days from now, at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala, announcing you as the new CEO of Reed
00:24:41Records.
00:24:42And my daughter, the heiress to my empire.
00:24:46It's time to show the world who you really are.
00:24:57My back is pressed.
00:25:05My back is pressed.
00:25:12No, no!
00:25:15Okay, guys, cut the track.
00:25:20The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:25:23Look, guys, we have one week, alright, to finish this song before the release.
00:25:29The echo that I know can put together a perfect studio mix in hours.
00:25:34You 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?
00:25:51Dexy.
00:25:53Of course I am.
00:25:56It's just...
00:25:57Your new assistant.
00:25:58He's been messing-
00:26:00He'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...
00:26:19It's Dexter.
00:26:20And I'm sorry, but my last assistant would've never screwed me over like that.
00:26:25You're fine.
00:26:33See it again.
00:26:49Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:26:53Writing love songs used to be so easy with Casey here.
00:27:09We're sorry.
00:27:10You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:27:15Alright, 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.
00:27:40An invitation to the biggest industry event of the year.
00:27:43The Reed Records Music Hall of Fame Gala.
00:27:53Look, I'm not interested.
00:27:55Okay, we have a song to finish.
00:27:56Dexter.
00:27:58You said it yourself.
00:27:59They can lay down a track in hours.
00:28:01We have to go.
00:28:02This is a personal invitation from Mr. Ed Reed himself.
00:28:07Okay.
00:28:08Look.
00:28:10I know what you're thinking, but Casey probably meant nothing to him.
00:28:14He's a billionaire record executive.
00:28:16I'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.
00:28:28Okay, 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.
00:28:41I mean, what was so special about her anyway?
00:28:43Her coarse, tangled hair?
00:28:48Her dull, crusty skin?
00:28:51Or maybe those hideous, god-awful clothes?
00:28:58I'm Echo.
00:28:59I'm the Reed heiress.
00:29:01And I'm taking back everything that's mine.
00:29:09How 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.
00:29:23Are 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.
00:29:32The heiress to the Reed fortune.
00:29:34Do you think she's going to be the new CEO?
00:29:35I don't know. Who is this mysterious heiress?
00:29:38She is Ed Reed's daughter.
00:29:40I 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! Here she is now!
00:30:00No fucking way!
00:30:25Casey?
00:30:30Casey?
00:30:31Hey, Dex.
00:30:33Long time no see.
00:30:37Dex has already moved on with Scarlet.
00:30:39I should be happy walking away from him.
00:30:42So...
00:30:44¿Por qué es mi corazón aún apagado?
00:31:01Ignore ella.
00:31:02Y en vez de enfocarse en el beso de Ed Reed,
00:31:04así que nos introduce a la nueva CEO.
00:31:07Debería escuchar, Dexter.
00:31:10Todo lo que tenemos que hacer es ir a su buen lado,
00:31:11y nuestro álbum va a ir directamente a número uno.
00:31:14Ella está correcta.
00:31:16Tengo que empiezo a Ed Reed y a este nuevo CEO
00:31:19si quiero que nuestro álbum sea un hit.
00:31:37Scarlet, qué terrible sorpresa.
00:31:39Yo debería haber sabido que te iba a sneak in aquí
00:31:41a buscar a tu nuevo agujero,
00:31:42pero esta party es para los líderes de la industria de la música solo.
00:31:46Yo suggero que te quedes en la calle con los otros hookers.
00:31:49Pero la party está empezando.
00:31:52No puedo perder el gran anuncio.
00:31:56¿Por qué?
00:31:57¿Por que puedes seducir el nuevo CEO de Reed Records, también?
00:32:00I hear he's much more selective than Ed Reed,
00:32:04so 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.
00:32:17Jealous?
00:32:18I loved him,
00:32:19and those feelings don't just go away.
00:32:22How could she change his mind so easily?
00:32:26You can dress up all you want,
00:32:29but you will always just be Dexter's lowly,
00:32:33little, errant girl.
00:32:34I thought she was someone important.
00:32:37She's just a desperate assistant,
00:32:39playing 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?
00:32:47Probably out whoring herself to old men,
00:32:49just like all those desperate social climbers in our industry.
00:32:53Hmm, they got that right.
00:32:56Hmm, is that so?
00:32:58Tell me something, Scarlet.
00:33:01Is it really me?
00:33:03Who's putting on an actor?
00:33:07Is it you?
00:33:09How dare you?
00:33:12Be careful.
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,
00:33:21but you have no money and no connections
00:33:24besides the ones you make in pay-by-the-hour hotel rooms.
00:33:27But me, I'm a beloved up-and-coming pop star.
00:33:30And if you so much as threaten me
00:33:32or my career ever again,
00:33:34I will get you canceled so fucking hard,
00:33:37your grandchildren won't be able to show their faces in public.
00:33:41Mr. Reid, uh, hi, uh, Dexter Hayes.
00:33:44Thank you so much for the invite.
00:33:46Um, you've always been a true hero of mine.
00:33:49Well, I would really love to put that, um,
00:33:52well, that incident with my assistant behind us.
00:33:56Oh, Dexter Hayes, of course I can.
00:33:58Oh, I can't wait to see the look on his face
00:34:02when he realizes the assistant he rejected is my daughter
00:34:07and the heiress to the Reid record's fortune.
00:34:10Well, you know, sir, um,
00:34:11well, you may or may not have heard about, uh,
00:34:13the record that Scarlet Heart and I are, uh, working on.
00:34:16I really think that between my lyrics and, well, her producing
00:34:20and you're a musical genius over the last many decades,
00:34:23I think we could really make something special.
00:34:26Well, you make a compelling point.
00:34:29And, you know, if it's not too much,
00:34:31it actually might be helpful for the record.
00:34:32Well, maybe if you could put in a good word with the new CEO,
00:34:36I, I, well, that would make me forever, forever grateful.
00:34:40Why don't you put in a good word yourself?
00:34:42The new CEO is already here.
00:35:03I've been trying to call you the last few days
00:35:06and, well, I guess I'm just surprised
00:35:08that instead you've just showed up here.
00:35:10I hated myself for wanting to pick up the phone.
00:35:14For wanting to hear his voice again.
00:35:16But after what he did to me,
00:35:18I 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?
00:35:26Did 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,
00:35:37but I think I'm gonna stay.
00:35:40You know, Scarlet, on the other hand, though,
00:35:42has been throwing around nothing,
00:35:43but vile slander and empty accusations all night.
00:35:47If anyone needs to go, it should be her.
00:35:50Unless you want me to expose your lies to Dexter right here, right now.
00:35:55Yeah, right.
00:35:56The only ones who can remove me
00:35:57are Mr. Reed himself or the new CEO.
00:36:00You have no power here.
00:36:02Okay, guys.
00:36:04Ed Reed and this new CEO
00:36:06are about to announce our new album.
00:36:08Can we have this conversation later?
00:36:10Aw, Dex.
00:36:12You forgot to say please.
00:36:17Wait, Casey, what?
00:36:24Ladies and gentlemen,
00:36:26it's time to announce tonight's special guest.
00:36:32Reed Records is the number one largest music label in the world.
00:36:38But tonight,
00:36:39I want to introduce you
00:36:40to someone who's more precious to me than any company.
00:36:44Someone who grew up listening to me play piano,
00:36:46who has written hundreds of songs
00:36:48and never put her name on one of them
00:36:51because she never wanted to gain fame
00:36:54through her mind.
00:36:56No more secrets, Dexter Hayes.
00:36:58It's time you finally learned who you really rejected.
00:37:02Mr. Reed is looking right at us.
00:37:05He's going to call us on stage.
00:37:07All right, this is it.
00:37:08He's going to announce that he's signed us to Reed Records.
00:37:10I want to introduce
00:37:13the heir to my billion-dollar music empire
00:37:16and the new CEO of Reed Records.
00:37:18my princess
00:37:20in the light of my life,
00:37:23my daughter,
00:37:25Casey Reed.
00:37:30What?
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.
00:38:05She's the daughter of billionaire music royalty.
00:38:08Scarlet Heart is delusional.
00:38:10Insulting the new CEO of Reed Records to her face?
00:38:13She just committed career suicide.
00:38:16Mr. Reed, your gift.
00:38:17For the lady of the hour.
00:38:20That's millions of dollars of gold.
00:38:23Dad, this is too much.
00:38:25Well, something from the old man.
00:38:27And now Dexter will see
00:38:28that 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,
00:38:38but 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.
00:38:45This whole time,
00:38:46she was with me for love,
00:38:47not fame.
00:38:48She tried to tell me the truth,
00:38:50and instead of trusting her,
00:38:51I left her for another woman.
00:38:53How could I be so blind?
00:39:02Suits you?
00:39:04Uh, the, um,
00:39:06guitar and, uh,
00:39:07CEO title.
00:39:08Why can't you just say you miss me?
00:39:11Casey, I, I, look, I just...
00:39:24I still miss you.
00:39:36Shouldn't you be licking your fiancé's wounds?
00:39:39Knowing she just insulted the CEO
00:39:42of the most powerful music company
00:39:44has got to hurt.
00:39:45But, I mean,
00:39:46you of all people should know.
00:39:47Please, you have to believe me, okay?
00:39:49If you just let me explain,
00:39:51I 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,
00:40:02that's, that's not why I'm here.
00:40:04If you just let me tell you,
00:40:05I, I...
00:40:06I mean, come on, Casey.
00:40:08I mean, you gotta understand,
00:40:09I, you're the one who lied to me.
00:40:11I lied.
00:40:12Yeah.
00:40:12And what would you call
00:40:13getting engaged to Scarlet
00:40:14after promising to put a ring
00:40:15on my finger?
00:40:17I didn't want any of that to happen.
00:40:19You have to believe me, please.
00:40:20I was just trying to...
00:40:23Look, I...
00:40:24Just tell me one thing, okay?
00:40:26I guess, why, why are you here?
00:40:27Are you here just...
00:40:28Is this just some royal way
00:40:29to get revenge?
00:40:31Tank my career?
00:40:34Oh, Tank your career.
00:40:36I made his career.
00:40:39I loved you, Dexter.
00:40:41You might have found out
00:40:42who my father is today,
00:40:43but you still have no idea
00:40:45who I am.
00:40:45Wait.
00:40:50This...
00:40:51This is why you proposed to Scarlet,
00:40:53isn't it?
00:40:54Why you left me for dead.
00:40:59Sucked up to my dad,
00:41:01threw me to the curb
00:41:03for the fame,
00:41:04the fortune,
00:41:06the fans.
00:41:06No, no, please.
00:41:07No, no, no.
00:41:08Actually, I think
00:41:09it's time to make
00:41:10my first decision
00:41:11as the new CEO.
00:41:14Can I get everyone's
00:41:15attention, please?
00:41:19I hope everyone
00:41:20is having fun.
00:41:21Reed Records
00:41:22will be ending
00:41:23its contract
00:41:24with Dexter Hayes
00:41:26and dropping him
00:41:27as an artist.
00:41:33Effective immediately.
00:41:34Oh, my God.
00:41:35Oh, my God.
00:41:36Oh, my God.
00:41:40You know,
00:41:41I am so glad
00:41:43I never told you
00:41:44who I really was,
00:41:46because if I didn't,
00:41:46I might not have ever
00:41:47found out that you
00:41:48don't really love me
00:41:49for me.
00:41:49Casey,
00:41:50none of that is true,
00:41:51okay?
00:41:52None of this.
00:41:52I don't care about that.
00:41:53I've always loved you.
00:41:54Don't bother arguing
00:41:55with her anymore, Dexter.
00:41:57She may be rich,
00:41:58but she's just
00:41:59an arrogant nepo baby
00:42:01with no real talent.
00:42:02Scarlet is Echo.
00:42:04She can produce
00:42:05two songs.
00:42:06She can get you
00:42:07to the top
00:42:07of the charts
00:42:08with or without
00:42:09Reed Records.
00:42:10Dexter,
00:42:10you don't need her.
00:42:12She doesn't understand you
00:42:13like Scarlet does.
00:42:15Okay, Mom, Mom,

01:13:15Don't listen to her
01:13:17I'm Echo
01:13:21I 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
01:13:38No, that was me
01:13:40I already did all the work
01:13:41She'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?
01:13:54I don't think you could afford my fee
01:13:57I think you might just be surprised
01:14:00$200 million
01:14:02$200 million?
01:14:03For one song?
01:14:05That's more than our entire album deal
01:14:07Are you insane?
01:14:07And I want my name to be credited
01:14:12Bad deal, Miss Reed
01:14:15And one last thing
01:14:16I want a public apology
01:14:19From Scarlet Heart and Amelia Hayes
01:14:22That's ridiculous!
01:14:23Why 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?
01:14:39The clock is ticking
01:14:41I was wrong about you
01:14:43You saved Dexter's song
01:14:47I'm sorry
01:14:51And you?
01:14:52Do it
01:14:54Apologize to her
01:14:55That 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
01:15:06I pretended
01:15:07And I never wrote or produced
01:15:08Any of Dexter's songs
01:15:09They are happy?
01:15:13They are happy?
01:15:16Wait
01:15:16That's not what I really meant
01:15:19Dexter
01:15:20She manipulated me
01:15:22You're still my fiancé
01:15:23You believe
01:15:24Scarlet, you are exactly what we all see
01:15:26You fucking bought
01:15:27And you're a damn liar
01:15:30Casey
01:15:31Is the one
01:15:32Who built my career
01:15:33Hell, 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
01:15:39Or loved me
01:15:41Our engagement
01:15:42Is off
01:15:43And so is the record
01:16:07Please don't cancel the album
01:16:08The album
01:16:10Terminating a contract
01:16:11And blacklisting you from the industry
01:16:13Career's over
01:16:20Got yourself a deal, Case
01:16:29Get it
01:16:30Get it
01:16:36If we're not here for long
01:16:40Tell me where would we belong
01:16:46My back is passed 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
01:17:01In my wings
01:17:03It's burning through 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
01:17:24Where you're not open, Kimball
01:17:30And the mist
01:17:32To me
01:17:37Who are you to tell me why?
01:17:47Thank you
01:18:03¡Gracias!
01:18:21Ms. Reed, the whole world wants to know, are you the award-winning genius music producer Echo?
01:18:27I think everyone saw the broadcast, and my work speaks for itself.
01:18:31You are a revolution in the music industry, and we can't wait to see what you do next, Echo.
01:18:39You arrogant fucking whore! You ruined everything!
01:18:47Dexter was going to be mine! I was going to be the biggest pop star in the world!
01:19:01But you had to get in my way.
01:19:05That won't happen again.
01:19:08Dex, no!
01:19:18No!
01:19:21Dex! Dex, stay with me!
01:19:22Oh my god!
01:19:27Hey, hey, hey. You've been here all night. You still love him, don't you?
01:19:36Dexter saved my life, but as soon as I thank him, we can move on.
01:19:42You know, if you say so, but have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to
01:19:48save you?
01:19:48It doesn't matter now.
01:19:50Things will never return back to how they were before.
01:19:54Casey, Dexter was an absolute idiot for betraying you, okay?
01:19:59But without him, I would have lost my baby girl.
01:20:03And those two songs you two produced together, they made millions believe in love. Your love.
01:20:11Well, they shouldn't have fallen for it. I mean, a love like that burns bright, but it doesn't last forever.
01:20:19Clearly, Dexter never stopped caring about you. Hmm? Maybe your love story isn't over.
01:20:25The other Reed Records executives want Dexter to headline the big festival and sign him to the label again.
01:20:31You know, if our CEO approves.
01:20:39Dexter is sleeping, but you can see him now.
01:20:47Don't be afraid to tell him how you feel, Princess.
01:21:06It was a close call. One centimeter to the right. He could have punctured his loan.
01:21:12If Dex couldn't sing anymore, his life might as well be over.
01:21:16Oh, hopefully. He'll recover.
01:21:18But for now, all he needs is rest.
01:21:22That's it.
01:21:29What is wrong with you, Dexter?
01:21:33How could you do something so stupid?
01:21:37If you don't make it through this, I will never forgive you.
01:21:43Never.
01:21:46Why?
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...
01:22:08Casey, I...
01:22:12I miss you.
01:22:13I miss him, too.
01:22:15But everything we've put each other through, can we really be together again?
01:22:20You saved my life, and...
01:22:25I will be forever grateful.
01:22:30And in return, I'll give you your song for free.
01:22:33And, um, we can go our separate ways. We can end on a high note.
01:22:37No!
01:22:40Is that really what you want?
01:22:42To walk away from all this forever?
01:22:44There.
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, okay?
01:23:19I would never, ever, ever do that to you.
01:23:22I'd choose you a million times over.
01:23:24And I knew that I'd break your heart, and I knew that I would lose you, and I...
01:23:30But I'd rather risk that than losing your life forever.
01:23:38But I said I loved you, Dexter. I meant it.
01:23:42I don't want to be with anyone else.
01:23:45Me neither.
01:23:50You're my little muse.
01:23:54My pop star.
01:23:59Which...
01:24:00Reminds me?
01:24:03Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline the Wildlight List.
01:24:10The Wildlight Festival is the biggest music stage in the world.
01:24:14You saved their CEO. You deserve it.
01:24:17You're the reason I sing.
01:24:19You're the reason I live.
01:24:20I don't want to songwrite or do any of this if I don't have you.
01:24:24You...
01:24:25You're my world, Casey.
01:24:29I know I've written a lot of songs, okay? I know.
01:24:32But none of them compare to how I feel.
01:24:35I don't want to be with you for just who you are, or what you have, or any of that
01:24:39stuff.
01:24:40I don't even want to sing or have this career. I'd give it up in a second if it meant
01:24:44just being with you.
01:24:45That's all I need.
01:24:49You do it together.
01:24:54I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes.
01:24:57Okay.
01:25:00I want us to do this together.
01:25:05I love you.
01:25:08I love you too.
01:25:15This is the biggest car I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:26Then we better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:30Yes, ma'am.
01:25:40I wrote this song with Casey Reed, who is my echo, but more importantly, she is undoubtedly the love of
01:25:49my life.
01:25:52So, I hope you enjoy.
01:26:20So, each time I remember to smile, I imagine a world where together.
01:26:39It's gold on, the stuff in the stockings that I am still walking with all through.
01:26:51Was the fool who I hated
01:26:54Now I'm recreated
01:26:56Every time I look at the moon
01:27:01I dream of the night
01:27:03It's lost forever
01:27:07Soon you'll see
01:27:10That it's time for you and me
01:27:15Because the pain is so far
01:27:19We're just a little
01:27:25Every time I look in your eyes
01:27:29I forget where I am
01:27:32Just a little
01:27:33Yeah, yeah, yeah
01:27:36I dream of the night
01:27:41It's lost forever
01:27:42Yeah, yeah
01:27:48I'm taking and talking
01:27:51But I will be with you
01:27:54Yeah, yeah
01:27:58I'm here and living
01:28:00My heart is still feeling
01:28:03Every time I remember to smile
01:28:07I imagine the world
01:28:09We're together
01:28:16I'm here and living
01:28:16Beyond the earth
01:28:16I'm here and living
