00:00:09We are bringing you live coverage from the Record Academy Awards.
00:00:12And now, gracing the red carpet is Ralph Farswald, the driving force behind CR Entertainment
00:00:17Group, and one of the most eligible bachelors in show business.
00:00:27So many beautiful young ladies.
00:00:30Have you picked your future wife yet?
00:00:32Mom, please.
00:00:33I'm not going on my retreat until I've seen you settle down.
00:00:42I'm already married.
00:00:43When?
00:00:47This is her.
00:00:52David.
00:00:53Boss.
00:00:54I need someone to pretend to be my wife.
00:01:02Oh, finally decided to grace us with your presence.
00:01:07Oh, I arranged your marriage.
00:01:09The Chelsea family's heir?
00:01:11Sure, their instrument chain stores would be a valuable partnership.
00:01:16I don't want-
00:01:18Want?
00:01:19Since when does what you want matter?
00:01:22But you can't make her marry him.
00:01:24He's sick.
00:01:26Everyone knows-
00:01:26Shut up!
00:01:27She's not even your real sister.
00:01:29Would you rather be out on the streets when our company goes under?
00:01:31I can't marry him.
00:01:33Why not?
00:01:35Because I'm already married.
00:01:36Oh, this is bullshit, and you know it!
00:01:38Show me the marriage certificate.
00:01:39Okay.
00:01:39I said, show me a marriage certificate.
00:01:42Okay.
00:01:43I will.
00:01:46It better be a real one!
00:01:51Hi, Jerry.
00:01:52Price just doubled.
00:01:53Two grand.
00:01:56For a fake marriage.
00:01:58I wouldn't send that on a real marriage, Jerry.
00:02:01Two grand.
00:02:02On no deal.
00:02:06My boss who made it?
00:02:17You okay?
00:02:18You can always change your mind.
00:02:20I said, show me a marriage certificate!
00:02:24Yeah, I'm okay.
00:02:25You okay, Liz?
00:02:26I'm gonna kill her.
00:02:27Mmm...
00:02:27I'm gonna kill her.
00:02:31It's...
00:02:31Lost in memories of you.
00:02:35A face I can't ignore...
00:02:41Woo!
00:02:42Woo!
00:02:43Woo!
00:02:43Woo!
00:02:44Woo!
00:02:44Woo!
00:02:46Pretty voice!
00:02:48Pretty face!
00:02:50This is enough!
00:02:52Wrestling artists shows profound lack of clarity.
00:02:56I suggest you leave the city
00:03:13Your voice don't give up on the news see our entertainment is always looking for new talents
00:03:24Good luck
00:03:32Gentlemen I'm sorry to interrupt forgive me
00:03:35Boss your mother's private plane just took off
00:03:38She's very pleased about the marriage
00:03:40At least someone is
00:03:43Sorry boss I must have left the marriage certificate somewhere
00:03:49And she didn't call back
00:03:51Has your wife replied yet?
00:03:54She never wants to meet me
00:03:56Let's get out of here
00:04:02I mean it's ridiculous
00:04:04What a ghost?
00:04:06Well it's not bad to get a beautiful couture necklace
00:04:09I am sorry that this is all so rushed
00:04:12My boss wishes he could be here
00:04:14This is from him
00:04:16A wedding present
00:04:22Hmm and you never tried to find him?
00:04:26Maybe he doesn't want to be found
00:04:38So you actually did it
00:04:41Found someone desperate
00:04:43Enough to marry you
00:04:47Well I'm singing on the streets now
00:04:49So I'm pretty sure however I lead my life
00:04:51I'm not your burden anymore
00:04:52Oh a street performer?
00:04:56Oh
00:04:56How fitting
00:04:58You're finally at your level
00:05:05Since you're a married woman now
00:05:08Don't bother coming back
00:05:11Although I doubt your husband wants you either
00:05:16I doubt yours ever did
00:05:19Say that again?
00:05:20You heard me
00:05:24Should have left this house long ago
00:05:25Should have left this house long ago
00:05:26Like her bitch mother
00:05:32Oh my God
00:05:34Oh
00:05:36Oh
00:05:36Oh
00:05:36Oh
00:05:37Oh
00:05:37Sorry

00:05:39I'm not going to have foot
00:05:40Oh my dear
00:05:40Wait, wait, wait
00:05:42It is
00:05:42So here
00:05:44Maybe this will help the swelling
00:05:46Oh, thank you.
00:05:49My mom taught me this, actually.
00:05:5120 minutes of cold and gentle movement.
00:05:54Such a kind girl.
00:05:59A few delays, but, you know, that's what happens.
00:06:01I find what I've got.
00:06:02When...
00:06:04Mom?
00:06:06You were supposed to be in Switzerland?
00:06:08I wanted to surprise my son and mysterious daughter-in-law.
00:06:12I went via your house first.
00:06:14One toothbrush, one coffee mug,
00:06:16one set of everything.
00:06:19Mom?
00:06:20Show me the marriage certificate.
00:06:22I...
00:06:27I lost it.
00:06:28Then introduce me to her.
00:06:30Tonight, no excuses.
00:06:34Boss.
00:06:35I found her.

00:10:17Do you know who she will become?
00:10:19She is the next rising star of CR Entertainment.
00:10:23And you, you are a nobody.
00:10:25You get lost on your way to the service entrance.
00:10:28I hear the catering staff are looking for an extra pair of hands.
00:10:33I, my original...
00:10:34Original songs.
00:10:37Please.
00:10:38Look at you, Mona.
00:10:40Discount store clothes, unwashed hair.
00:10:43Have some dignity.
00:10:45Know your place, which is in the gutter, where you belong.
00:10:50Mom, Mia.
00:10:52Not another word.
00:10:53I would like you to focus on your debut.
00:10:56This show is CR Entertainment's flagship project.
00:11:00The winner becomes an instant celebrity.
00:11:03Mia will have her own recording contract.
00:11:07And Ben, and...
00:11:10Let's just say you will never breathe the same air as us.
00:11:14Again, you are not fit to be our relative anyway.
00:11:20Oh, my God!
00:11:21Oh, my God!
00:11:22Oh, my God!
00:11:22Oh, my God!
00:11:23Oh, my God!
00:11:25Oh, my God!
00:11:26Oh, my God!
00:11:26Oh, my God!
00:11:28Oh, my God!
00:11:28Oh, my God!
00:11:28Oh, my God!
00:11:30Oh, my God!
00:11:39Let's look like fools.
00:11:40If word gets out that Mia's stepsister is a street performer, you're going to ruin everything.
00:11:48She needs to learn her place.
00:11:51No, no!
00:11:51Oh, are you running away?
00:11:53Just like you would always run away from your family, pretending you were an artist living on the streets?
00:11:59I am talking to you.
00:12:01Let's see how well you perform without this precious guitar of yours.
00:12:05Stop now!
00:12:06No!
00:12:07Stop now!
00:12:07Stop now!
00:12:08No!
00:12:09No!
00:12:10No!
00:12:10No!
00:12:13No!
00:12:16No!
00:12:17No!
00:12:17No!
00:12:19No!
00:12:21No!
00:12:23No!
00:12:39Oh, what do we have here?
00:12:46A little too luxurious for someone living off charity?
00:12:52isn't it? What designer store did you steal from this time? The necklace.
00:13:02Mr. Fussel, we have gathered the finest young talent. Your investment should be a very-
00:13:08I'm sorry, we've gone out of the financials. Thank you. I am so sorry to interrupt. Boss,
00:13:15the Pierre Blanche diamond necklace. Your wife's necklace. I just saw it. I've got a mouthful.
00:13:20Could that be? Possibly. I think I can get a good look. What designer store did you steal
00:13:25from this time? Mona, did you really steal this? Mia? No, God. Not you too. You don't believe
00:13:34me. Ladies and gentlemen, we have a thief amongst our midst. Security! I want to see what other
00:13:43valuable she's taken. A sandwich wrapped in newspaper? How pathetic. Search her thoroughly.
00:13:55I want everyone to see what sort of criminal can sneak into my venue. Hold her down. Hold
00:14:01her down. We need to see what other expensive items are still. Sang Chai's in it. Stop!
00:14:11Take your hands off her.
00:14:19Look who's playing knight in shining armor. Some nobody trying to act important. What are you,
00:14:26a waiter? Oh, no, no. A valet parker? I know your plays. Evidence of theft? Or is wealth your only
00:14:33measure of character? Who do you think you are? This is my territory. Ben controls this show. He's
00:14:40the producer. So I would like you to apologize now or we'll destroy you both. A producer wielding such
00:14:47power. Interesting. CR Entertainment. You ever heard of it? It's worth billions. And they are sponsoring our
00:14:58shirt. Well, I will be choosing tomorrow's star. Therefore, my net worth will skyrocket. So I'd pipe
00:15:07down if I were you. I'll make sure you never work in this city again. CR Entertainment won't be sponsoring
00:15:18anything today. Well, the CEO and the chairman have already sealed a deal. Perhaps your CEO should
00:15:27hear this directly. I swear, if you can get the CEO down here, I'll bet on my mother's grave.
00:15:37What is going on? He is an imposter. Your producer physically assaults contestants. Accuses them of
00:15:44theft without evidence. Makes a mockery of real talent. Your show just lost its sponsorship and its
00:15:51future. You incompetent bullies. Mr. Yang, I think there's sort of misunderstanding. Silence. Do you have
00:16:00any idea what you have done? That sponsorship is worth millions. If you have lost the CR Entertainment
00:16:07because of your stupidity, I will take everything you own. Your house, your car. No, no, no, no, no,
00:16:15Mr. Yang. There has to be something that we can do to resolve misunderstanding. We have it all on
00:16:23video. Mr. Chairman, I didn't know. Exactly. You didn't know. Yet, he felt entitled to abuse your
00:16:30power. Your company's reputation rests on his behavior today. Choose wisely. I believe the show
00:16:36needs new management. Someone who understands that talent isn't measured by the price of their
00:16:43clothes. Mr. Fastfold, I assure you, his idiocy is not representative of our company's collective
00:16:52intelligence. Intelligence isn't the issue. It's malice. The sponsorship deal is dead.
00:17:04As I was saying, I think we need to sit down and discuss this misunderstanding. That's all
00:17:11it is. What is this? No, no, no. You fools! All of you, the legal expenses alone will bankrupt
00:17:18you and take your scheming family with you. Six years. Every song, every memory. You're
00:17:31right. This guitar was all I had left. You're really nice to your co-workers. Not your co-workers,
00:17:38your employees. Do you have a Pierre Blanche? Pierre? Is that a song title? I don't remember
00:17:45writing anything like that. No. It seems to be a misunderstanding. What a shame.
00:17:53But I wrote Midnight Rain and Have I Been Missing You? It was actually chosen for this music
00:17:59competition, but that's why I came tonight. Since we're cancelling our sponsorship of this
00:18:04show, C.R. Entertainment will be making its own music competition. Would you be interested
00:18:09in participating? Really? Tell me about your music. What's your style? I wish I could play
00:18:15for you. I... Monday. 3.30. Vinyl Dreams off Brick Lane. I'll play some of my demos for you.
00:18:27Where is she? Where's my daughter-in-law? It's been days, Rafe. You're hiding your wife
00:18:34from me, aren't you? Another one of your ploys to avoid settling down. It's complicated,
00:18:39Mum. Complicated how? Has she been unfaithful? I'm so sorry. I should have...
00:18:48Look at you. So worried. And a man like you who could have anyone. There must be a misunderstanding.
00:18:56Marriage is fate's arrangement. If you found each other once, you just need to talk it through.
00:19:02Oh my God! She said, I'm a furry bill. I'll justifusize you in theren village.
00:19:09What about her.
00:19:13What happened?
00:19:17Directly, I'll be clear.
00:19:17What happened?
00:19:18No.
00:19:20What happened?
00:19:31No then時.
00:19:35Come to notice
00:19:38If it all falls
00:19:41Within this past
00:19:44I will still breathe
00:19:52What do you think?
00:19:55Beautiful
00:19:56The sun, I mean
00:19:59It's what I mean
00:20:04It's got sort of
00:20:07Emotional quality to it
00:20:11Some sadness too
00:20:14After my father passed
00:20:16My house didn't really feel like home
00:20:19Anymore
00:20:20My stepmother made sure of that
00:20:22What happened?
00:20:23I had to leave everything
00:20:25Behind my music, school scholarship
00:20:27My
00:20:29I had everything
00:20:31I am
00:20:33I could never quit music
00:20:37Even when serving coffee
00:20:39Or singing for loose change
00:20:42The melodies just kept coming
00:20:47Okay
00:20:48I want to share something with you
00:20:52What is it?
00:20:52The first album that made me fall in love with music
00:20:58Oh
00:20:59Come down
00:21:02In these velvet eyes
00:21:07And hide away with me
00:21:32I want to share something with you
00:21:35Let's go
00:21:35I want to Beloved
00:22:00It's the artist I wanted to show you.
00:22:05The backup singer for Stephanie.
00:22:08I need that job.
00:22:12I'm sorry, I don't want to mess it up, and I'm totally going to miss the opportunity.
00:22:16In my eyes.
00:22:22Unless...
00:22:23Unless you agree to be my wife.
00:22:27What?
00:22:30What?
00:22:32Your wife?
00:22:34My mom's health isn't great.
00:22:38She needs treatment and an operation, go to Europe.
00:22:44She's obsessed about me settling down first.
00:22:48You need, um, someone to play the part.
00:22:51Just one dinner.
00:22:53Help me convince her I'm happy.
00:22:56She'll focus on her health.
00:22:57I mean, you defended me with Lisa the other day and everybody, so...
00:23:03How can I say no?
00:23:12Cool.
00:23:21That sounds beautiful.
00:23:24I have news.
00:23:26That original song of yours, we want you to perform it today.
00:23:29There's someone very special who wants to hear it.
00:23:31What?
00:23:32Are you...
00:23:32Someone wants to hear my song?
00:23:34Oh, God.
00:23:45Sorry.
00:23:46Not a minute.
00:24:01Hello, sweetie.
00:24:03Has anyone told you about the special guest today?
00:24:05He's only the biggest producer, like, ever.
00:24:08Alexander Adams?
00:24:09Ring any bells?
00:24:11He's responsible for all the major superstars.
00:24:15Singers, he is incredibly selective.
00:24:18He's only going to listen to one song to decide if he'll be the mentor of our show.
00:24:22One song?
00:24:23Yeah.
00:24:24Mr. Fassfeld is, uh, dying to get his hands on him.
00:24:27The future of the company depends on it.
00:24:29Well, I won't let him down.
00:24:31Exactly.
00:24:33Don't mess it up.
00:24:44Is that the backup singer?
00:24:46She looks like a star.
00:24:56Time's short.
00:24:58Wait.
00:24:59The backing track.
00:25:00It's gone.
00:25:03Someone's wiped the entire system clean.
00:25:09Amateur hour.
00:25:10How convenient.
00:25:13Deleting your whole backing track when you know you can't perform.
00:25:19Is this how CR Entertainment runs things now, huh?
00:25:26Get off the stage.
00:25:28We came to see professionals.
00:25:33Is that Mr. Fassfeld?
00:25:48Come to notice.
00:25:52If it all falls.
00:25:55Within this pause.
00:25:58I will still breathe.
00:26:00Be the force I can't ignore.
00:26:07The force I can't ignore.
00:26:14This is my redemption days.
00:26:20The force I can't ignore.
00:26:22For all of my laws.
00:26:26My faith will gain.
00:26:38The force I can't ignore.
00:26:43The force I can't ignore.
00:27:08incredible where has she been hiding such raw emotion such authenticity this is what music

00:35:45right
00:35:49few women would have stood such pressure

00:36:28don't touch that
00:36:30oh and look what you've done
00:36:31for my flaws
00:36:33this is what happens when you let anybody in
00:36:36I'm sorry I just want to
00:36:37security

00:36:44no
00:36:44like a partner
00:36:46hiding so you can grab and run
00:36:47I have devoted my entire life to music
00:36:50I would respect any instrument
00:36:51devoted your life to music
00:36:53what playing between the garbage bins
00:36:55you probably haven't washed your hands since your last performance
00:36:59this guitar has been played by Grammy winners
00:37:01and festival performance
00:37:03they wouldn't even trust the likes of you to clean their dressing rooms
00:37:09what's in the bag?
00:37:10stolen goods?
00:37:12yes
00:37:12or just a cardboard sign that says
00:37:14we'll play for food
00:37:15you couldn't make enough money in five years of panhandling to pay for this guitar
00:37:20although I guess it does depend how pathetic you look while you're begging
00:37:24the only pathetic sight here is you
00:37:29who do you think you are?
00:37:30get your manager
00:37:32unless you prefer I buy this store just to find you
00:37:35security remove these two
00:37:37Mr. Fastfold
00:37:39I had no idea you were coming
00:37:41clearly
00:37:42please sir
00:37:44last year alone
00:37:46CR Entertainment bought three million dollars worth of equipment
00:37:49in four
00:37:50perhaps your staff prefer not to deal with such
00:37:54common transactions
00:37:57I'll handle this immediately
00:37:58no no it's fine
00:38:00I'll deal with this myself
00:38:02you enjoy judging musicians
00:38:04let's discuss your qualifications
00:38:06what conservatory did you attend?
00:38:08how many original compositions have you published?
00:38:12nothing
00:38:14then you're just a shop kid who's got a bit too big for her boots
00:38:20you just humiliate a song under my protection
00:38:22she's with Mr. Fastfold
00:38:24she is our V, V, I-
00:38:27I-
00:38:27I-
00:38:27Look at her
00:38:27look at her
00:38:28she could have damaged it
00:38:29these street performers are always just
00:38:31shall we see what street performers can do?
00:38:38show them what music really means
00:38:40No, no.
00:39:15She must be famous, right?
00:39:18What's her name?
00:39:19This is my redemption days
00:39:27For all of my loss
00:39:30My faith will gain
00:39:43A part of me fell out of place
00:39:50He never was lost
00:39:55But I found my faith
00:40:03Have I been missing you?
00:40:27Oh, uh, such masterful talent, such emotion
00:40:34Good deal
00:40:35Such an expensive guitar
00:40:37Anyone can sound good
00:40:38Probably the first time she's picked up anything that isn't a cheap knockoff
00:40:43Yeah, you're right
00:40:44This is the first time I've played something so magnificent
00:40:49That's the beautiful thing, though, about music, isn't it?
00:40:51Doesn't matter if it's a priceless guitar or one you pick up from a pawn shop
00:40:54Every instrument has a soul and a story
00:40:58You know, I think that the real tragedy actually isn't standing on streets and performing
00:41:02I think it's standing in a shop
00:41:04Surrounded by beautiful instruments
00:41:05And never knowing their purpose
00:41:07Why is she still employed here?
00:41:11You're right
00:41:11Clear out your desk
00:41:13Immediately
00:41:13CR Entertainment will be taking our business elsewhere
00:41:17And I'll make sure that every major recording studio in the city knows why
00:41:22Oh, and this guitar
00:41:25I'm taking it
00:41:27Not for your store, obviously
00:41:30But for this street musician
00:41:31You thought wasn't good enough to even touch it
00:41:36You don't have to do that
00:41:37I mean, I appreciate everything you've done
00:41:40But let me save up for it
00:41:41Think of it as an investment
00:41:43How would you earn money performing without your instrument?
00:41:46Besides, consider it an advance payment
00:41:49For the performance of a lifetime
00:41:58Ah, this is my start
00:42:00You're there, that's who?
00:42:04Yes
00:42:20Oh, God
00:42:22I'm married
00:42:24You have a wife
00:42:25You've never even met
00:42:26We can't
00:42:27It's wrong
00:42:32No, no
00:42:33Good night, Mr. Passport
00:42:35Elise
00:42:36Don't make it harder than I, Sve
00:42:42What have you done, Sve?
00:42:53Hello
00:42:53Hello there, Mrs. Fastfold
00:42:55I'm sorry to bother you
00:42:56I just found out something interesting about Mona's family
00:42:59Her stepsister, Mia, is an aspiring singer
00:43:01She actually studied at Juilliard
00:43:02The new CR music competition
00:43:04We could invite her to compete
00:43:07Wouldn't that make Mona happy?
00:43:09Supporting her sister's dreams?
00:43:11Absolutely, Mrs. Fastfold
00:43:12Consider it done
00:43:13Well done
00:43:14Thank you
00:43:18Finally, recognition of true talent
00:43:22Unlike some people who sing for pennies on street corners
00:43:27This is our chance
00:43:30To climb back up to the top
00:43:34With CR Entertainment's backing
00:43:38We can be untouchable
00:43:41With the right connections
00:43:43The right marriages
00:43:47But, Mom
00:43:49What about Mr. Fastfold?
00:43:51And after what we did to Mona
00:43:54Rafe Fastfold
00:43:58Please, darling
00:43:59I'm sure he doesn't even remember that little incident
00:44:04Besides
00:44:05Your sister
00:44:08So common
00:44:10So unrefined
00:44:13Quitting school
00:44:14Embarrassing us
00:44:16With those street performances
00:44:21But you
00:44:23Darling
00:44:23Juilliard's trained
00:44:27Proper
00:44:28Breeding
00:44:31You are everything
00:44:33She is not
00:44:34But
00:44:35He seemed so angry that day
00:44:37Men like him
00:44:39Have short memories
00:44:41Besides, honey
00:44:42This invitation
00:44:44Was from
00:44:45Pam Fastfold
00:44:46His mother
00:44:50Oh, spare us
00:44:52Put borrowed feathers on a crow
00:44:54It's
00:44:54It's still a crow
00:44:58Oh, look at you
00:45:00Playing dress up
00:45:02A college
00:45:02Drop out
00:45:04Pretending to be an artist
00:45:05One
00:45:06Decent song
00:45:08Doesn't make you special
00:45:10I know
00:45:11Mia
00:45:11Went to Juilliard
00:45:13Master of music theory
00:45:15Composition
00:45:15Arrangement
00:45:17And what do you know
00:45:18Street corner acoustics
00:45:23Exactly
00:45:24No education
00:45:25No breeding
00:45:26No talent
00:45:27Just a pathetic
00:45:28That is quite enough
00:45:33You dare speak of music
00:45:35When spewing such hatred
00:45:37Music is about soul
00:45:39About touching hearts
00:45:41People like you
00:45:42Who measure worth
00:45:44By degrees
00:45:45And social status
00:45:46You don't deserve
00:45:48To be anywhere
00:45:49Near a stage
00:45:50Who
00:45:51Do you think you are?
00:45:55Do you know
00:45:56Who we are
00:45:57In the music industry?
00:45:59Know who you are, darling
00:46:00I know exactly
00:46:02Who you are
00:46:02Someone about to
00:46:03Lose everything
00:46:06One phone call
00:46:08That's all it takes
00:46:09For me to destroy you
00:46:10By tomorrow morning
00:46:11You won't even
00:46:11Be able to buy coffee
00:46:13Mona
00:46:14Is my daughter-in-law
00:46:16Oh
00:46:18Well
00:46:19Perfect
00:46:21A whole
00:46:22Family
00:46:23Of gun rats
00:46:27Since
00:46:28My daughter-in-law
00:46:30Is too gracious
00:46:31To teach you manners
00:46:32I'll handle
00:46:33Your education myself
00:46:35Don't you touch her
00:46:37What do you
00:46:38You can't
00:46:39Can't what?
00:46:40You dare to raise your voice
00:46:42At me
00:46:42A small-time producer
00:46:43Who are you supposed to be?
00:46:45The queen mother
00:46:46Of CR entertainment
00:46:47Ow!
00:46:49Finally said something right
00:46:51Sit off of me
00:46:53You mean
00:46:55You are the famous
00:46:58Mrs. Fastfold
00:47:00Which means
00:47:02Rafe Fastfold
00:47:04Is your son?
00:47:07Wait, but
00:47:09Didn't our little
00:47:10Street singer over here
00:47:12Just tell us that
00:47:13Rafe is just her
00:47:15Boss
00:47:16And not
00:47:17Her husband
00:47:18Maybe you should
00:47:19Coordinate your lies
00:47:21Before you put on
00:47:22A pathetic little show
00:47:24Like this
00:47:25Okay?
00:47:26My dear
00:47:26I understand now
00:47:27You kept quiet
00:47:28To protect Rafe's position
00:47:30Protection?
00:47:31We
00:47:32Are his
00:47:33Honored
00:47:34Yes
00:47:37He
00:47:38Personally
00:47:39Invited us
00:47:41Is that what you think?
00:47:43How amusing
00:47:44The truth is
00:47:45I only suggested
00:47:47Inviting you
00:47:48Because Mona
00:47:49Has such a
00:47:50Forgiving heart
00:47:51You
00:47:52Are just a
00:47:55Delusional woman
00:47:56Who's telling stories
00:47:57And you know what?
00:47:58You must call
00:47:59The CEO's office
00:48:01Now
00:48:01David
00:48:03These impostors
00:48:04Are causing trouble
00:48:05This woman
00:48:06Claims that she is
00:48:08Mrs. Fastfold
00:48:09They don't even have
00:48:12Invitations
00:48:12You have to
00:48:13Remove them
00:48:15Immediately
00:48:17May I see
00:48:18Your invitation
00:48:18Please
00:48:20Our invitation?
00:48:22Mm-hmm
00:48:23Well
00:48:24Of course
00:48:32Yes
00:48:33This invitation
00:48:34Bears your signature
00:48:35You authorized this
00:48:36Mrs. Fastfold
00:48:37Indeed I did
00:48:38A mistake
00:48:39I've
00:48:40Come to regret
00:48:42I warned you
00:48:43What would happen
00:48:44If you
00:48:44Hurt my daughter-in-law
00:48:50No
00:48:51No
00:48:51No
00:48:51Mrs. Fastfold
00:48:52We need this
00:48:53Where's all the law?
00:48:54Let this be a lesson to you
00:48:56The next time someone
00:48:57Shows you kindness
00:48:59Remember this moment
00:49:01Let's call them out
00:49:01Mrs. Fastfold
00:49:03Let's go
00:49:04Mrs. Fastfold
00:49:05This was a misunderstanding
00:49:08Now you understand your power dear
00:49:11Time for you to end their little empire
00:49:13Okay
00:49:13Well
00:49:14It's troubling you
00:49:16Well Mia
00:49:18She's innocent
00:49:19In all of this
00:49:20I'll give Mia another chance
00:49:24Mrs. Fastfold
00:49:26I need to tell you something
00:49:28I haven't
00:49:30I've been lying to you
00:49:32He's pretending to help me
00:49:33So you could go to Europe
00:49:34Without worrying
00:49:36What are you saying?
00:49:37Me and Ross are pretending
00:49:38To be a couple
00:49:39I'm so sorry
00:49:40You've been so kind
00:49:43This makes no sense
00:49:44What do you mean?
00:49:46I've seen the way my son looks at you
00:49:49When you sing
00:49:50When you laugh
00:49:51His eyes follow you
00:49:52Like you're the sun
00:49:53And you
00:49:54The way you lean into his touch
00:49:56It's just acting
00:49:58No one's that good an actress dear
00:50:06Your mom knows that we're not married
00:50:08And?
00:50:09She said something about the way you look at me
00:50:12And I'll look at you
00:50:16Like you want something you can't have?
00:50:18Can't I?
00:50:22We both have spouses
00:50:23Waiting for her some more
00:50:25Something could work
00:50:28Every time you see him
00:50:32Every time you smile
00:50:34I might as well feel so right
00:50:45We're terrible people
00:50:47That works
00:51:02Any regrets?
00:51:04Only that we didn't do this sooner
00:51:09We have to get to the worst
00:51:12I know
00:51:16I'll get David to call my lord today
00:51:17And then?
00:51:19Then we'll hide it
00:51:37Another rejection
00:51:41Even those D-list record labels
00:51:43Won't touch us
00:51:44Rape
00:51:46Fastfold's blacklist
00:51:47Is destroying us
00:51:49If you hadn't treated Mona so badly
00:51:52This never would have happened
00:51:53And you've made enemies
00:51:55With the most powerful family in the industry
00:51:57The most powerful family
00:52:00That's it
00:52:06We are not enemies of the Fastfolds
00:52:10We're practically family
00:52:11Think about it
00:52:13Mona is Rafe's wife
00:52:16But we're not
00:52:18Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
00:52:19Details don't matter
00:52:21It's perception
00:52:24We will host
00:52:26A special
00:52:28Qualifying round
00:52:30For CR's rising notes
00:52:32Get out of there
00:52:34Invite
00:52:35All of the major players
00:52:38In the industry
00:52:39Drop Ralph's name
00:52:41Just hint
00:52:42At our connection
00:52:43Oh, and of course
00:52:44We have to make sure
00:52:46Our dear Mona attends
00:52:48And by the time
00:52:50Rafe shows up
00:52:51Everyone will assume
00:52:54We have his backing
00:52:56Mom, that sounds dangerous
00:52:59This is not dangerous
00:53:00This is brilliant
00:53:02We will showcase your talent
00:53:04We will rebuild our connections
00:53:07And we'll let everyone think
00:53:10That we're under CR's
00:53:13Protection
00:53:19Okay, boss
00:53:20The marriage certificate
00:53:21Divorce proceedings
00:53:28Mona Colby
00:53:33We found this at the concert hall
00:53:43That we've been working together
00:53:48That we've been working together
00:53:55I'm a runner-up
00:53:55If you get your hotel
00:53:56Yeah
00:53:58Have I been missing you?
00:54:00Five minutes for stage
00:54:01Oh, that's me
00:54:09Two minutes.
00:54:10And now, our final performer.
00:54:15What's that?
00:54:18No, it can't be.
00:54:20Come to notice.
00:54:25Look at the looks on these executives' faces.
00:54:31They all think they're discovering the next big star.
00:54:37No one will know it's Mona's song.
00:54:40By tomorrow, everyone will be talking about Mia's brilliant original song.
00:54:46It's a brilliant cloud.
00:54:48Luring the industry using Ralph's name.
00:54:52And then showcasing Mia with stolen material.
00:54:56They're gonna eat it up.
00:54:59And also, all of the music industry thinks that we are under Ralph Vastfold's protection.
00:55:07Yes, I have already made some amazing opportunities.
00:55:27It's a force I can't ignore.
00:55:36A part of me found a place.
00:55:45He never was lost.
00:55:49And I found my place.
00:55:56I've been missing you.
00:56:13I'm sorry.
00:56:15Sorry to interrupt.
00:56:16Um, I just couldn't stay silent.
00:56:19This song, these chords, and these lyrics, it's my heart.
00:56:24And I think for a music competition that celebrates original music, the truth matters.
00:56:34Liar!
00:56:35You worthless, jealous little snake.
00:56:40You...
00:56:42She!
00:56:43This little snake is trying to destroy my daughter's music career.
00:56:49You are nothing but a street rat who cannot stand seeing her sister succeed.
00:57:00Everything I said is true.
00:57:03Oh, but you are a complete liar.
00:57:07And I can prove exactly who's lying.
00:57:14Let me tell you all a little story about our talented friend here.
00:57:19She is not Mrs. Vastfold.
00:57:22She is nothing but a street performer who got lucky.
00:57:26I heard her confess it myself.
00:57:28This whole marriage is a lie.
00:57:30Cucked up to full Madam Pam.
00:57:33A fraud.
00:57:34We cleared our schedule for this.
00:57:36I canceled a meeting in Shanghai.
00:57:38Oh, thank you, darling, for that little bit of information.
00:57:44You are just a little con artist who used the title of Rafe Vastfold's wife to trick the entire music.
00:57:54I tried to tell you so many times.
00:57:57Oh, just shut up!
00:57:58Shut up!
00:57:59You have ruined everything.
00:58:02Our reputation.
00:58:03Our connections.
00:58:05I...
00:58:29I'll teach you to humiliate us.
00:58:33What are you doing?
00:58:34Get out of the way!
00:58:35Mia!
00:58:37Everything I've done!
00:58:39All of my connections are...
00:58:41Are for you!
00:58:42For your future!
00:58:43My future?
00:58:45Twisted expectations!
00:58:47I hate singing!
00:58:50I've always hated it!
00:58:52But never once did you ask me what I wanted!
00:58:55Don't be ridiculous!
00:58:56You are a star!
00:58:58I'm your puppet!
00:59:00I'm your puppet!
00:59:01You used Mona's song to make me shine!
00:59:03You stole her music!
00:59:04Her dreams!
00:59:06So you could live some twisted fantasy through me!
00:59:10How dare you!
00:59:11After everything I sacrificed for you!
00:59:15Sacrificed?
00:59:16You sacrificed nothing but your humanity!
00:59:19Mona.
00:59:20I'm so sorry, Mona.
00:59:22I didn't know it was your song.
00:59:23I would never hurt you that way.
00:59:26I made a mistake.
00:59:28I was too afraid to stand up to her.
00:59:30And I let her turn me into a thief.
00:59:32Can you forgive me?
00:59:34Christ.
00:59:37You...
00:59:39Ungrateful...
00:59:40Child.
00:59:41You have let this...
00:59:43Street rat...
00:59:45Poison...
00:59:45Your mind.
00:59:47And you...
00:59:48You have destroyed everything...
00:59:50I have built.
00:59:51First...
00:59:52You trick me...
00:59:53With Rafe Fastfold's name.
00:59:55And then you turn my own daughter against me.
00:59:58She told me it's her stepdaughter who looks her own child.
01:00:00I wonder the poor girls who were Benning.
01:00:03Shut up!
01:00:04All of you!
01:00:05I just want to destroy that little face and...
01:00:11Lisa!
01:00:18Touch her again.
01:00:19And I swear it'll be the last thing you ever do.
01:00:25Let me see your hands.
01:00:26How?
01:00:27Sorry.
01:00:28Come on.
01:00:29It's okay.
01:00:30Every time I turn around, someone's trying to hurt you.
01:00:33Oh, please.
01:00:34Spare us the act.
01:00:36We all know the truth now.
01:00:37She is not your wife.
01:00:39She is nothing.
01:00:40You're right.
01:00:43She's not my wife.
01:00:46That's only because she hasn't said yes yet.
01:00:50I've been falling in love with her ever since the first note she played at that record store.
01:00:58And I won't let anyone harm the woman I love.
01:01:05We had no idea she was being in the streets.
01:01:08We're here just to attend the official CR event.
01:01:11We would never take care of her.
01:01:13We would never take care of her.
01:01:13We would never take down such pain.
01:01:15Stephanie.
01:01:15Stephanie.
01:01:16Stephanie.
01:01:16Your career's over.
01:01:18And not just at CR Entertainment.
01:01:21Everywhere.
01:01:22Your voice, your face, they'll be erased from the industry.
01:01:33Ladies and gentlemen, you've been deceived.
01:01:37This event is a fraud.
01:01:40Orchestrated by someone who's desperate enough to forge CR Entertainment's name.
01:01:45Please, Mr. Fastfold.
01:01:47We can explain everything.
01:01:51You burned a magician's hand.
01:01:53She's fine.
01:01:54Peter.
01:01:57Oh.
01:01:59Please, Mr. Fastfold.
01:02:01We will do anything.
01:02:02Anything?
01:02:03Perfect.
01:02:06Give to them exactly what they were going to give to Mona.
01:02:11Times 10.
01:02:13No, no, no, no, wait, wait, wait, wait, let's relax a little bit.
01:02:16You said it's fine.
01:02:19See, if I hear one cry of pain, let's make it times 20.
