00:02:56I suggest you leave the city.
00:03:13Your voice.
00:03:15Don't give up on the news.
00:03:18CR Entertainment is always looking for new talent.
00:03:24Good luck.
00:03:32Gentlemen, I'm sorry to interrupt.
00:03:34Forgive me.
00:03:35Boss, your mother's private plane just took off.
00:03:38She's very pleased about the marriage.
00:03:41At least someone is.
00:03:44Sorry, boss.
00:03:45I must have left a 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.
00:03:57Let's get out of here.
00:04:03I mean, it's ridiculous.
00:04:04What?
00:04:05A ghost?
00:04:06Well, it's not bad to get a beautiful couture and necklace.
00:04:10I am sorry that this is all so rushed.
00:04:13My boss wishes he could be here.
00:04:14This is from him.
00:04:16A waiting present.
00:04:23And you never tried to find him?
00:04:27Maybe he doesn't want to be found.
00:04:38So you actually did it.
00:04:41I found someone desperate enough to marry you.
00:04:47Well, I'm singing on the streets now, so I'm pretty sure however I live my life, I'm not your burden
00:04:52anymore.
00:04:53Oh, a street performer?
00:04:56Oh.
00:04:57How fitting.
00:04:59You're finally at your level.
00:05:06Since you're a married woman now, don't bother coming back.
00:05:12Although, I doubt your husband wants you either.
00:05:16I doubt yours ever did.
00:05:19Say that again?
00:05:21You heard me!
00:05:24Should have left this house long ago, like her bitch mother.
00:05:35Oh.
00:05:35Oh.
00:05:37Oh.
00:05:37Sorry.
00:05:38Are you okay?
00:05:39I lost my foot.
00:05:40Oh, my dear.
00:05:41Wait, wait, wait.
00:05:42Yes.
00:05:43Sorry, here.
00:05:45Maybe this will help the swelling.
00:05:47Oh, thank you.
00:05:49My mom taught me this, actually.
00:05:5120 minutes of cold and then gentle loosened it.
00:05:55Such a kind girl.
00:05:59A few delays, but you know, that's what happens.
00:06:01Our friend was at her body.
00:06:03Wait.
00:06:04Mom.
00:06:07You 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, one set of everything.
00:06:19Mom.
00:06:20Show me the marriage certificate.
00:06:23I...
00:06:27I lost it.
00:06:29Then introduce me to her.
00:06:30Tonight.
00:06:31No excuses.
00:06:34Boss.
00:06:35I found her.
00:06:39Have a nice day, man.
00:06:42So, boss.
00:06:44We have the limited edition Hermes bag and this place.
00:06:49Call the real estate division.
00:06:51I want two penthouses in Central Gardens.
00:06:53The one with the Riverview.
00:06:54Yes, sir.
00:07:03Hey, this is Rafe.
00:07:05Rafe?
00:07:06Your husband.
00:07:07My husband.
00:07:09Honey?
00:07:11Honey, dinner's ready.
00:07:13I see that you're busy.
00:07:16Oh, it's really good.
00:07:19Smells good, too.
00:07:20Thank you, honey.
00:07:22Okay, boss.
00:07:23That's all sorted.
00:07:25She's with another man.
00:07:26I'm sorry.
00:07:31Get me the best divorce law in the city.
00:07:33Are you sure?
00:07:34Your mother...
00:07:35We'll have to understand.
00:07:37Get close and we
00:07:39Forget weary
00:07:42Ooh
00:07:43Then him
00:07:45I'm blessed to be

00:07:54Amateur hour?
00:07:55I'm so sorry.
00:07:57I'm so sorry.
00:07:59I'm flying and we're
00:08:01We're close and we're
00:08:05The mute
00:08:06Right, so first you're late
00:08:08And now you're mute
00:08:09What is wrong with you?
00:08:12I want her out
00:08:13What kind of amateur
00:08:14Doesn't silence their phone
00:08:15Just see our entertainment
00:08:16Not some karaoke bar
00:08:18I'm so sorry.
00:08:19I can hear you, please
00:08:20She's just welcome to my session
00:08:21She's degrading the company's reputation
00:08:23The only one degrading this company is you
00:08:26Mr. Fastfold, I didn't
00:08:28Clearly
00:08:29Look, she showed up late
00:08:31She's ruined my session
00:08:33She doesn't know how things work
00:08:34And you think treating people like garbage
00:08:36Is how things work here?
00:08:40Cancel her next album
00:08:41Please, no
00:08:42No, I just
00:08:43Just what?
00:08:44Show me exactly who you are
00:08:47It won't happen again
00:08:49I'll be better next time
00:08:50I promise
00:08:58Thank you, Mr. Fastfold
00:09:00I've got me, Rafe
00:09:03You are?
00:09:04Mona
00:09:05Mona?
00:09:06Mona?
00:09:09Sounds familiar
00:09:14Mona?
00:09:17Sounds familiar
00:09:25Boss, preliminary round will be held tonight
00:09:35Have I been missing you?
00:09:42Hello?
00:09:43Mona!
00:09:44You're not going to believe this!
00:09:45What?
00:09:46The biggest songwriting show in the country
00:09:48And you're in!
00:09:49What?
00:09:50But I never...
00:09:51Preliminary round is tonight
00:09:52You have to go!
00:10:02Mona
00:10:06You can't be here
00:10:08How dare
00:10:12How dare
00:10:14You come near my daughter with those filthy hands
00:10:17Do you know who she will become?
00:10:19She is the next rising star of CR Entertainment
00:10:23And you?
00:10:24You 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
00:10:35Original songs
00:10:37Please
00:10:38Look at you, Mona
00:10:40Discount store clothes
00:10:42Unwashed hair
00:10:43Have some dignity
00:10:45Know your place
00:10:47Which is in the gutter
00:10:48Where you belong
00:10:50Mom!
00:10:51Mia!
00:10:52Not another word
00:10:53I would like you
00:10:54Focus on your debut
00:10:56This show
00:10:57Is CR Entertainment's flagship project
00:11:00The winner
00:11:01Becomes an instant celebrity
00:11:03Mia will have her own
00:11:05Recording contract
00:11:07And Ben
00:11:09And...
00:11:10Let's just say
00:11:11You will never breathe the same air as us
00:11:14Again
00:11:15You are not fit
00:11:16To be our relative
00:11:34Yeah, we're not going to let you get away with this
00:11:36It's just that easy
00:11:38You're going to make us look like fools
00:11:40If word gets out
00:11:43That Mia's stepsister is a street performer
00:11:46And 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
00:11:56Pretending you were an artist
00:11:58Living 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
00:12:06Shut up!
00:12:07Shut up!
00:12:08Shut up!
00:12:39Now, what do we have here?
00:12:47A little too luxurious
00:12:50For someone living off charity, isn't it?
00:12:55What designer store did you steal from this time?
00:12:59The necklace
00:13:27Mona, did you really steal this?
00:13:29Yeah
00:13:30No, God
00:13:32Not you too
00:13:34You don't believe me
00:13:35Ladies and gentlemen
00:13:36We have a thief amongst our midst
00:13:40Security
00:13:41I want to see what other valuables she's taken
00:13:48A sandwich wrapped in newspaper
00:13:51How pathetic
00:13:52Search her thoroughly
00:13:55I want everyone to see what sort of criminal can sneak into my venue
00:14:00Hold her down
00:14:01Hold her down
00:14:03We need to see what other expensive items this little contest is in it
00:14:07Shut up!
00:14:11Take your hat off
00:14:20Look who's playing knight in shining armor
00:14:23Some nobody trying to act important
00:14:25What are you, a waiter?
00:14:27Oh, no, no
00:14:28A valet parker?
00:14:29I don't know your plays
00:14:30Evidence of theft
00:14:31Or is wealth your only measure of character?
00:14:35Who do you think you are?
00:14:37This is my territory
00:14:38Ben controls this show
00:14:40He's the producer
00:14:41So I would like you to apologize now
00:14:44Or we'll destroy you both
00:14:46A producer wielding such power
00:14:49Interesting
00:14:50CR Entertainment
00:14:51You ever heard of it?
00:14:54It's worth billions
00:14:56And they are sponsoring our show
00:14:58Well, I will be choosing tomorrow's star
00:15:01Therefore
00:15:02My net worth will skyrocket
00:15:06So I'd pipe down if I were you
00:15:08Or I make sure
00:15:11You
00:15:11Never work in this city again
00:15:17CR Entertainment won't be sponsoring anything today
00:15:21Well, the CEO and the chairman have already sealed a deal
00:15:24Perhaps your CEO should hear this directly
00:15:29I swear, if you can get the CEO down here
00:15:31I'll bet on my mother's grave
00:15:38What is going on?
00:15:39He is an imposter
00:15:41Your producer physically assaults contestants
00:15:43Accuses them of theft without evidence
00:15:46Makes a mockery of real talent
00:15:48Your show just lost its sponsorship
00:15:51And its future
00:15:52You incompetent bull
00:15:55Mr. Yang!
00:15:56I think there's some misunderstanding
00:15:58Silence!
00:15:59Do you have any idea what you have done?
00:16:02That sponsorship is worth millions
00:16:04If you have lost a CR Entertainment
00:16:07Because of your stupidity
00:16:09I will take everything you own
00:16:12Your house, your car
00:16:14No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, Mr. Yang
00:16:17There has to be something that we can do to resolve this other fault
00:16:21We have it all on video
00:16:23Mr. Chairman, I didn't know
00:16:25Exactly, you didn't know
00:16:27Yet, you felt entitled to abuse your power
00:16:31Your company's reputation rests on his behavior today
00:16:34Choose wisely
00:16:36I believe the show needs new management
00:16:38Someone who understands that talent
00:16:40Isn't measured by the price of their clothes
00:16:43Mr. Fastfold
00:16:45I assure you
00:16:46His idiocy
00:16:48Is not representative
00:16:50Of our company's collective intelligence
00:16:53Intelligence isn't the issue
00:16:54It's malice
00:16:56The sponsorship deal is dead
00:17:04As I was saying
00:17:05I think we need to sit down
00:17:08And discuss this misunderstanding
00:17:10That's all it is
00:17:12What's business?
00:17:12No, no, no
00:17:13You fools!
00:17:14All of you!
00:17:15The legal expenses alone will bankrupt you!
00:17:19And take your scheming family with you!
00:17:23Six years
00:17:28Every song, every memory
00:17:31You're right
00:17:32This guitar was all I had left
00:17:35You're really nice to your co-workers
00:17:37Not your co-workers, your employees
00:17:41Do you have a Pierre Blanche?
00:17:43Pierre?
00:17:44Is that a song title?
00:17:45I don't remember writing anything like that
00:17:47No
00:17:48It seems to be a misunderstanding
00:17:50What a shame
00:17:54But
00:17:54I wrote Midnight Rain
00:17:56And Have I Been Missing You?
00:17:58It was actually chosen for this music competition
00:18:00But I
00:18:01That's why I came tonight
00:18:02Since we're cancelling
00:18:03A sponsorship of this show
00:18:05CR Entertainment will be making
00:18:06Its own music competition
00:18:08Would you be interested in participating?
00:18:11Yeah
00:18:12Tell me about your music
00:18:13What's your style?
00:18:15I wish I could play for you
00:18:16I
00:18:17Monday
00:18:193.30
00:18:20Vinyl Dreams
00:18:21Off Brick Lane
00:18:22I'll play some of my demos for you
00:18:27Where is she?
00:18:28Where's my daughter-in-law?
00:18:31It's been days, Rafe
00:18:33You're hiding your wife from me, aren't you?
00:18:35Another one of your ploys to avoid settling down
00:18:38It's complicated, Mum
00:18:40Complicated, how?
00:18:42Has she been unfaithful?
00:18:45I'm so sorry
00:18:46I should have
00:18:48Look at you
00:18:49So worried
00:18:51And a man like you
00:18:52Who could have anyone
00:18:54There must be a misunderstanding
00:18:56Marriage is fate's arrangement
00:18:59If you found each other once
00:19:01You just need to talk it through
00:19:04You start the arrangements
00:19:06You, stop the entrance
00:19:1040
00:19:1040
00:19:1040
00:19:14exatamente
00:19:1540
00:19:34Come to notice
00:19:39That all falls
00:19:41Within this past
00:19:44I will still breathe
00:19:52What do you think?
00:19:56Beautiful
00:19:58The song, I mean
00:19:59That's what I mean
00:20:04It's got a sort of
00:20:07Emotional quality to it
00:20:11Some sadness too
00:20:14After my father passed
00:20:17My house didn't really feel like home
00:20:19Anymore
00:20:20My stepmother made sure of that
00:20:22I had to leave everything
00:20:25Behind
00:20:26My music, school scholarship
00:20:28My
00:20:29I ain't everything
00:20:32I am
00:20:34I could never quit music
00:20:36Even when serving coffee
00:20:39Or singing for loose change
00:20:42The melodies just kept coming
00:20:48Okay, I want to share something with you
00:20:52What is it?
00:20:53The 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
00:21:34The record
00:21:35What record?
00:22:00It's the artist I wanted to show you.
00:22:06Backup singer for Stephanie.
00:22:09I need that job.
00:22:12I'm sorry, I don't want to mess up and I don't want to miss the opportunity.
00:22:17In my eyes.
00:22:21Unless...
00:22:24Unless you agree to be my wife.
00:22:27What?
00:22:32Your wife?
00:22:34My mom's health isn't great.
00:22:39She needs treatment, an operation, go to Europe.
00:22:44She's obsessed about me settling down first.
00:22:49You need someone to play the part.
00:22:52Just one dinner.
00:22:53Help me convince I'm happy.
00:22:56She'll focus on health.
00:22:57I mean, you defended me with Lisa the other day and everybody, so...
00:23:04How can I say no?
00:23:11Cool.
00:23:20That sounds beautiful.
00:23:25I 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?
00:23:33Someone wants to hear my song?
00:23:34Oh, God.
00:23:45Sorry.
00:23:47Not a month.
00:23:50Sorry.
00:23:59Oh!
00:24:01Hello, sweetie.
00:24:03Has anyone told you about the special guest today?
00:24:06He'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.
00:24:16He 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.
00:24:23One song?
00:24:24Yeah.
00:24:24Mr. Fastfeld 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.
00:24:34Don't mess it up.
00:24:44Is that the backup singer?
00:24:46She looks like a star.
00:24:58Wait.
00:24:59The backing track.
00:25:00It's gone.
00:25:03Someone's wiped the entire system clean.
00:25:09I'm a shower.
00:25:11How convenient.
00:25:13Deleting your whole backing track when you know you can't perform.
00:25:20Is this how CR Entertainment runs things now, huh?
00:25:26Get off the stage.
00:25:28We came to see professionals.
00:25:34Is that Mr. Fastfeld?
00:25:52Is that Mr. Fastfeld?
00:25:58the 2023?
00:25:59When you still breathe.
00:26:03The force I can't ignore.
00:26:14This is my redemption days
00:26:22For all of my loss
00:26:25My faith will gain
00:26:38A thought of me
00:26:41A thought of place
00:26:45He never was lost
00:26:50But I found my faith
00:26:57How I've been missing
00:27:09Incredible
00:27:09Where has she been hiding?
00:27:12Such raw emotion
00:27:13Such authenticity
00:27:15This is what music is all about
00:27:18Impossible
00:27:19Who is she?
00:27:21Which company represents her?
00:27:30And you are?
00:27:33Mona Corbett
00:27:34Alexander Adam
00:27:36Your voice
00:27:39It touches something deep within my soul
00:27:44You'll have to join me for dinner
00:27:45I would love to discuss your artistic vision
00:27:49You remind me of a young Joan Baez
00:27:52The same raw emotion
00:27:57Perhaps we can collaborate on your debut album
00:28:00I have a private studio in Milan
00:28:03She's quite extraordinary
00:28:04It's a fast fold
00:28:06You've been holding out on us
00:28:08Is Mona your company's next big project?
00:28:13She's very special
00:28:19She's very special
00:28:23At CR Entertainment
00:28:24I'm just Stephanie's back at CR
00:28:33She's the cornerstone of CR's next major projects
00:28:37She's the cornerstone of CR's next major projects
00:28:37This company was created with artists like her in mind
00:28:41Wait
00:28:42Really?
00:28:43That means
00:28:44Rafe
00:28:45You've convinced me
00:28:47Look
00:28:48I would be delighted to be your mentor
00:28:53Just keep me in the loop, yeah?
00:28:56Thank you
00:29:01You remembered my song?
00:29:03What?
00:29:04You remembered my song?
00:29:06What?
00:29:07I hadn't played that for you since the record started
00:29:09Well, I couldn't forget it even if I tried
00:29:12Thank you
00:29:14You believed in me when nobody else would
00:29:22Boss
00:29:23What a lovely performance
00:29:27Congratulations
00:29:28Excuse me
00:29:29Boss
00:29:29So I've been able to confirm it
00:29:31The security footage shows Stephanie accessing the sound system
00:29:35Deliberately erasing the backing track
00:29:37Did you think I wouldn't find out?
00:29:39What are you doing?
00:29:40Get out
00:29:41You just tried to destroy someone's dream today
00:29:44Someone with more talent in one note
00:29:47Than you've shown in your entire career
00:29:49Please
00:29:49Mr. Falzano
00:29:51Get out
00:29:51That's not what it looks like
00:29:52Explain what?
00:29:54How you took advantage of Mona's anxiety disorder
00:29:57How you deleted the backing track so she'd break down on stage
00:30:01You just tried to sabotage CR Entertainment's biggest project
00:30:06Just so you could destroy someone's dream
00:30:08Security
00:30:08Security
00:30:09No, no, no, no, wait, wait
00:30:10Your contract is terminated
00:30:13I hope you know that our legal team will make sure that you pay for it
00:30:16Every penny of the damage that you've caused

00:35:36when everyone was attacking me
00:35:39he didn't
00:35:40throw his weight around
00:35:42he just
00:35:44he stood up for what was right
00:35:50few women would have stood such pressure
00:35:52most people in mona's situation would have
00:35:54become bitter
00:35:56angry
00:35:57not mona
00:35:59she transforms tragedy into music
00:36:02makes

00:36:50i would respect any instrument
00:36:52devoted your life to music
00:36:54what playing between the garbage bins
00:36:55you probably haven't washed your hands
00:36:58since your last performance
00:36:59this guitar has been played by grammy winners
00:37:02and 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
00:37:11or just your cardboard sign that says
00:37:14we'll play for food
00:37:16you 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
00:37:31unless you prefer i buy this store just to fight
00:37:36security remove these two
00:37:37mr fastfold
00:37:39i i had no idea you were coming
00:37:41clearly
00:37:42please
00:37:43sir
00:37:44last year alone
00:37:46cr entertainment bought three million dollars worth of equipment
00:37:50for
00:37:50perhaps your staff prefer not to deal with such common transactions
00:37:57i'll handle this immediately
00:37:58no no it's fine
00:37:59i'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
00:38:13nothing
00:38:14then you're just a shopkeeper who's got a bit too big for her boots
00:38:20you just humiliate yourself under my protection
00:38:23she's with mr fastfold
00:38:25she is our v v i
00:38:27i can hold it cloud
00:38:28look at her
00:38:28she could have damaged it
00:38:30these street performers are always just
00:38:32shall we see what street performers can do
00:38:38show them what music really means
00:38:41no no
00:38:49time showing
00:38:54come to know it is
00:38:59if it all flows
00:39:01within this pause i will still breathe
00:39:08it's a force i can ignore
00:39:15she must be famous right
00:39:18what's her name
00:39:19this is my redemption days
00:39:26for all of my laws
00:39:31my faith will gain
00:39:38a part of me fell out of place
00:39:51yes
00:39:52he never was lost
00:39:55but i found my faith
00:40:03i've i've been missing
00:40:06you
00:40:34i've been missing
00:40:37guitar. Anyone can sound good. Probably the first time she's picked up anything that isn't a cheap
00:40:42knockoff. Yeah, you're right. This is the first time I've played something so magnificent. That's
00:40:50the beautiful thing though about music, isn't it? It doesn't matter if it's a priceless guitar or
00:40:54one you pick up from a pawn shop. Every instrument has a soul and a story. You know, I think
00:40:59that
00:40:59the real tragedy actually isn't standing on streets and performing. I think it's standing in a shot
00:41:04surrounded by beautiful instruments and never knowing their purpose. Why is she still employed
00:41:09here? You're right. Clear out your desk. Immediately. CR Entertainment will be taking our business
00:41:16elsewhere and I'll make sure every major recording studio in the city knows why. Oh, and this
00:41:24guitar? I'm taking it. Not for your store, obviously, but for the street musician you thought wasn't
00:41:33good enough to even touch it. You don't have to do that. I mean, I appreciate everything
00:41:40you've done, but let me save up for it. Think of it as an investment. How would you earn money
00:41:44performing without your instrument? Besides, consider it an advance payment for the performance
00:41:51of a lifetime. Ah, this is my stop. You live there too? Yes.
00:42:20Oh, God. I'm married. I have a wife. I've never even met. We can't. It's wrong.
00:42:33No, no. Good night, Mr. Fastfold. Please. Don't make it harder than asked me. What have you
00:42:43done, Sve? Hello? Hello there, Mrs. Fastfold. I'm sorry to bother you. I just found out something
00:42:57interesting about Mona's family. Her stepsister Mia is an aspiring singer. She actually studied
00:43:02at Juilliard. The new CR music competition. We could invite her to compete. Wouldn't that
00:43:08make Mona happy? Supporting her sister's dreams? Absolutely, Mrs. Fastfold. Consider it done.
00:43:14Well done. Thank you. Finally, recognition of true talent. Unlike some people who sing for pennies
00:43:26on street corners. This is our chance to climb back up to the top. With CR Entertainment's backing,
00:43:38we can be untouchable. With the right connections, the right marriages.
00:43:48But, Mom, what about Mr. Fastfold? And after what we did to Mona... Rafe Fastfold? Please, darling. I'm
00:44:00sure he doesn't even remember that little incident. Besides, your sister, so common, so unrefined,
00:44:13quitting school. Embarrassing us with those street performances. But you, darling. Juilliard's trained,
00:44:28proper breeding. You are everything she is not. But he seemed so angry that day. Men like him have short
00:44:41memories. Besides, honey, this invitation was from Pam Fastfold. His mother.
00:44:51Oh, spare us. Put borrowed feathers on a crow. It's... It's still a crow.
00:44:58Oh, look at you. Playing dress-up at college. Dropout, pretending to be an artist.
00:45:06One decent song. It doesn't make you special. I know. Mia, what went to Juilliard? Master of music
00:45:14theory, composition, arrangement. What do you know? Street corner acoustics.
00:45:23Exactly. No education, no breeding, no talent. Just a pathetic... That is quite enough.
00:45:34You dare speak of music when spewing such hatred. Music is about soul. About touching hearts. People
00:45:42like you who measure worth by degrees and social status. You don't deserve to be anywhere near a stage.
00:45:50Who do you think you are? Do you know who we are in the music industry?
00:45:59Know who you are, darling. I know exactly who you are. Someone about to lose everything.
00:46:07One phone call. That's all it takes for me to destroy you. By tomorrow morning, you won't
00:46:12even be able to buy coffee. Mona is my daughter-in-law.
00:46:18Oh, well, perfect. A whole family of gun rats.
00:46:28Since my daughter-in-law is too gracious to teach you manners, I'll handle your education
00:46:34myself. Don't you touch her. You can't. Can't what? You dare to raise your voice at me,
00:46:42a small-time producer? Who are you supposed to be? The queen mother of CR entertainment?
00:46:47Howard? Ow! Finally said something right. Stop of me. You mean you are the famous Mrs. Fastfold?
00:47:01Which means Rafe Fastfold is your son?
00:47:08Wait, but didn't our little street singer over here just tell us that Rafe is just her boss
00:47:17and not her husband? Maybe you should coordinate your lies before you put on a pathetic little
00:47:24show like this, okay? My dear, I understand now. You kept quiet to protect Rafe's position.
00:47:30Protection? We are his honored guests. He personally invited us. Is that what you think? How amusing.
00:47:45The truth is, I only suggested inviting you because Mona has such a forgiving heart.
00:47:51You are just a delusional woman who is telling stories. And you know what? You must call the CEO's office
00:48:01now.
00:48:02David, these imposters are causing trouble. This woman claims that she is Mrs. Fastfold.
00:48:11They don't even have invitations. You have to remove them immediately.
00:48:17May I see your invitation, please?
00:48:20Our invitation?
00:48:22Mm-hmm.
00:48:24Well, of course.
00:48:32Yes, this invitation bears your signature. You authorized this, Mrs. Fastfold.
00:48:37Indeed I did.
00:48:39A mistake I've come to regret.
00:48:42I warned you what would happen if you hurt my daughter-in-law.
00:48:51No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Mrs. Fastfold, we need this.
00:48:53Where's all the law?
00:48:55Let this be a lesson to you. The next time someone shows you kindness, remember this moment.
00:49:01Let's call them out, Mrs. Fastfold.
00:49:03Let's go.
00:49:04Let's go.
00:49:04Mrs. Fastfold, this was a misunderstanding.
00:49:07I was just, I'm not, I'm just, I can't know why.
00:49:10Now you understand your power, dear. Time for you to end their little empire, okay?
00:49:14Well, it's troubling you.
00:49:17Well, Mia, she's innocent in all of this.
00:49:21I'll give Mia another chance.
00:49:25Mrs. Fastfold, I need to tell you something. I haven't, I've been lying to you.
00:49:32He's pretending to help me, so that you could go to Europe without worrying.
00:49:36What are you saying?
00:49:37Me and Ross are pretending to be a couple.
00:49:40I'm so sorry. You've been so kind.
00:49:43This makes no sense.
00:49:45What do you mean?
00:49:47I've seen the way my son looks at you when you sing, when you laugh.
00:49:51His eyes follow you like you're the sun.
00:49:54And you, the way you lean into his touch.
00:49:57It's just acting.
00:49:59No 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?
00:50:19Can't I?
00:50:22We both have spouses waiting for us somewhere.
00:50:25Something can happen.
00:50:29Every time you sing.
00:50:32Every time you smile.
00:50:35I might say, if I was alright.
00:50:45We're terrible people.
00:50:48We're wigs.
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 lawyer today.
00:51:18And then?
00:51:19And then we'll hide it.
00:51:38Another rejection.
00:51:41Even those D-list record labels won't touch us.
00:51:45Rape, Fast Folds, Blacklist is destroying us.
00:51:50If you hadn't treated Mona so badly, this never would have happened.
00:51:53And you've made enemies with the most powerful family in the industry.
00:52:06We are not enemies of the Fast Folds.
00:52:11We're practically family.
00:52:12I don't know.
00:52:13Think about it.
00:52:14Mona is Rape's wife.
00:52:17But we're not...
00:52:19Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:52:20Details don't matter.
00:52:22It's perception.
00:52:24We will host a special qualifying round for CR's Rising Notes.
00:52:33Get out of there.
00:52:34Invite all of the major players in the industry.
00:52:40Drop Ralph's name.
00:52:42Just hint at our connection.
00:52:44Oh, and of course, we have to make sure our dear Mona attends.
00:52:49And by the time Rape shows up, everyone will assume we have his backing.
00:52:57Mom, that sounds dangerous.
00:52:59No, this is not dangerous.
00:53:01This is brilliant.
00:53:02We will showcase your talent.
00:53:05We will rebuild our connections.
00:53:08And we'll let everyone think that we're under CR's protection.
00:53:19Okay, boss.
00:53:21The marriage certificate.
00:53:22Divorce proceedings.
00:53:28Mona Corby.
00:53:34We found this at the concert hall.
00:53:58Have I been missing you?
00:54:00Five minutes to stage.
00:54:01Oh, that's me.
00:54:09Two minutes.
00:54:11And now, our final performer.
00:54:14What?
00:54:17No, it can't be.
00:54:20Come to know.
00:54:26Look at the looks on these executives' faces.
00:54:31They all think they're discovering the next big star.
00:54:36It's a four-pack.
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.
00:54:47It's a brilliant plan.
00:54:49Luring the industry using Ralph's name.
00:54:52And then showcasing Mia with stolen material.
00:54:56They're going to eat it up.
00:54:59And also, all of the music industry thinks that we are under Rafe Fastball's protection.
00:55:06Yes, I have already made some amazing opportunities.
00:55:12I have already made some amazing opportunities.
00:55:27It's a force I can't ignore.
00:55:39See you later.
00:55:41Perfect.
00:55:42Maybe you're just a part of the Developers.
00:55:45You're a part of the room.
00:55:49You're the and I have always learned.
00:56:13I'm sorry, sorry to interrupt.
00:56:17I just couldn't stay silent.
00:56:20This song, these chords and these lyrics, it's my heart.
00:56:25And I think for a music competition that celebrates original music, the truth matters.
00:56:34Liar!
00:56:35You worthless, jealous little snake.
00:56:42Jeez, this little snake is trying to destroy my daughter's music career.
00:56:50You are nothing but a street rat who cannot stand seeing her sister succeed.
00:57:01Everything 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. Fassfeld.
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.
00:57:31Cooked up to fool Madam Pam.
00:57:33A fraud.
00:57:34We cleared our schedule for this.
00:57:37I can't answer the meeting in Shanghai.
00:57:39Oh, thank you, darling, for that little bit of information.
00:57:44You are just a little con artist who used the title of Rafe Fassfeld's wife to trick the entire music.
00:57:55I tried to tell you so many times.
00:57:57Oh, just shut up!
00:57:58Shut up!
00:58:00You have ruined everything.
00:58:02Our reputation.
00:58:04Our connections.
00:58:05I think...
00:58:29I'll teach you to humiliate us.
00:58:33What are you doing?
00:58:34Get out of the way!
00:58:36Nia!
00:58:37Everything I've done!
00:58:39All of my connections are for you!
00:58:42For your future!
00:58:43My future?
00:58:45Twisted expectations!
00:58:48I hate singing!
00:58:50I've always hated it!
00:58:52Don't...
00:58:53But never once did you ask me what I wanted!
00:58:56Don't be ridiculous!
00:58:57You are a star!
00:58:59I'm your puppet!
00:59:00You used Mona's song to make me shine?
00:59:03You stole her music?
00:59:05Her dreams?
00:59:06So you could live some twisted fantasy through me?
00:59:10How dare you!
00:59:12After everything I sacrificed for you!
00:59:16Sacrificed!
00:59:16You've sacrificed nothing but your humanity!
00:59:20Mona.
00:59:20I'm so sorry, Mona.
00:59:22I didn't know it was your song.
00:59:24I would never hurt you that way.
00:59:27I 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.
00:59:33Can you forgive me?
00:59:34Chris.
00:59:36You...
00:59:39Ungrateful...
00:59:40Child.
00:59:41You have let this street rat poison your mind.
00:59:47And you...
00:59:48You have destroyed everything I have built.
00:59:51First, you tricked me with Ray Fastfold's name.
00:59:55And then you turned my own daughter against me.
00:59:58She told me it's her stepdaughter who looks her own child.
01:00:01No wonder the poor girls are abandoning.
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.
01:00:20And I swear it'll be the last thing you ever do.
01:00:25Let me see your hands.
01:00:27How?
01:00:28Joe.
01:00:30Every time I turn around, someone's trying to hurt you.
01:00:33Oh, please.
01:00:35Spare us the act.
01:00:36We all know the truth now.
01:00:37She is not your wife.
01:00:39She is nothing.
01:00:41You're right.
01:00:43She's not my wife.
01:00:46That's only because she hasn't said yes yet.
01:00:51I've been falling in love with her ever since the first note she played at that record store.
01:00:59And I won't let anyone harm the woman I love.
01:01:06We had no idea she'd be in the streets.
01:01:09We're here just to attend the official CR event.
01:01:11We would never take down such pain.
01:01:15Stephanie?
01:01:17Your career's over.
01:01:19And not just at CR Entertainment.
01:01:21Everywhere.
01:01:22Your voice.
01:01:24Your face.
01:01:27There'll be a raise from the industry.
01:01:34Ladies 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.
01:01:48We can explain everything.
01:01:51You burned a musician's hand.
01:01:54This is fine.
01:01:55Peter?
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
01:02:08exactly what they were going to give to Mona.
01:02:12Times 10.
01:02:14No, no, no, no, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, let's relax a little bit.
01:02:17You said it's fine.
01:02:20See, if I hear one cry of pain, let's make it time to 20.
01:02:27Faith.
01:02:29Worth it.
01:02:35Thank you, Faith, for defending me in there.
01:02:39Everything I said was real, man.
01:02:42I...
01:02:44I wanted to know that I went for a divorce today where...
01:02:47something came up with me.
01:02:48Yeah, what happened to me?
01:02:50It's just an misunderstanding.
01:02:51What divorce?
01:02:53I'm her husband.
01:02:54We got married last year.
01:03:00Barney Mona?
01:03:01No, I'm Joyce.
01:03:04You've got the wrong person.
01:03:06It doesn't matter at all.
01:03:08What matters is that I do what it's wrong.
01:03:13I'm getting dated to call my lawyer today.
01:03:15Starting the divorce proceedings.
01:03:20I just wanted to know it, for sure.
01:03:26Your song touched everyone who heard it.
01:03:30With the right support, you could be extraordinary.
01:03:33And I want to help you, Kim.
01:03:37If I understand, my feelings and my support are separate things.
01:03:40And if you don't return my feelings, I'll still champion your music.
01:03:44I want to start fresh with you.
01:03:47Let everyone will talk thoroughly talking.
01:03:49Let them talk.
01:03:53All I know is I want a better life with you.
01:03:59No more hiding.
01:04:02No more hiding.
01:04:22See, our entertainment is always looking for new talent.
01:04:26Take your hands off her.
01:04:28Let me see your hands.
01:04:29Fuck.
01:04:30She's very special.
01:04:32You believed in me when nobody else would.
01:04:35She transforms tragedy into music.
01:04:40Makes beauty for me.
01:05:06Hey, I'm here.
01:05:09Are they East Entrance?
01:05:11Look up.
01:05:43It's a force I can't ignore.
01:05:46I'm here to you.
01:05:48I'm here to you.
01:06:18I'm here to you.
01:06:22You never was lost.
01:06:26But I found my faith.
01:06:33How have I been missing?
