00:00:16My name is Casey Reed.
00:00:19No one knows I'm the heiress of Reed Records, the billion-dollar music empire, or that I'm
00:00:24Echo, the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys.
00:00:27I chose to stay invisible because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes,
00:00:35the rockstar I secretly built from the ground up.
00:00:38I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter.
00:00:42We share the same music, but never the same spotlight.
00:00:47Will you spit in my mouth?
00:00:59Dex, we're backstage, someone might see us.
00:01:05I am so done hiding you.
00:01:08I have no idea what you do to me, Casey, how you make me feel.
00:01:11You are my favorite song.
00:01:20You lose control.
00:01:22My little moon.
00:01:25I want you, Dex.
00:01:29I need you.
00:01:33Good.
00:01:35And because you're already mine, I'm going to call you on that stage tonight.
00:01:42I'm going to sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:01:44And I'm going to kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:47I'm going to claim every inch of you, note by note, in front of the whole world.
00:02:08Hey, Case, um, what's with all the secret phone calls?
00:02:12Just, what are you hiding?
00:02:15Nothing, it's just work stuff.
00:02:18Okay.
00:02:20It's time I come clean, too.
00:02:22Once he finishes this concert, the echo mask will come off.
00:02:26And I can finally be the real me.
00:02:29His echo and his Casey.
00:02:34You are going to be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:49I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:00And I'm going to pick him up right now.
00:03:02I don't bet he's
00:03:05When I say, I'm reason I'm falling in space
00:03:09I need more than your age
00:03:11If I need some nothing
00:03:13I need champagne in space
00:03:23And now, for the star of our show
00:03:27The world's hottest pop star
00:03:29And my soulmate, Dexter Hayes
00:03:36Wait for me, right here?
00:03:41Dexter Hayes is my ticket to the top of the charts
00:03:44But I'll never lock him down as long as he's in bed with his grumpy assistant
00:03:49A round of applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody
00:03:55Fans already love us
00:03:56Dexter Hayes, you will be mine
00:04:00Scarlet Heart
00:04:01Dexter Hayes' groupie-turned-wannabe pop queen
00:04:04She's always throwing herself at my boyfriend
00:04:07Maybe once he puts a ring on it tonight
00:04:09She'll finally take the hint
00:04:11I've got a really special one for y'all tonight
00:04:14Hope you enjoy
00:04:25Shit!
00:04:26The backing mix is corrupted
00:04:27I can't let Dexter's show get ruined
00:04:30Echo can fix this
00:04:34Are you here?
00:04:36I need your help
00:04:39What the hell is she up to?
00:04:43Well, I guess the system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes
00:04:47So, I'll be right back
00:04:53There, your gear from the studio
00:04:57Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:04:59Dad, we've talked about this
00:05:00In public, I am not your daughter
00:05:02And I'm not Echo
00:05:04But Dexter should know how hard you've worked for him
00:05:06You made him the star he is
00:05:10I'm telling him tonight
00:05:11But for now
00:05:13I have a tractor remix
00:05:15Oh, that's my girl
00:05:19When Dexter sees this
00:05:20He'll dump that little cheater
00:05:22And run straight into my arms
00:05:42Oh my god
00:05:43These are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs
00:05:45Is Casey... Echo?
00:05:56Time to save Dexter's concert
00:05:58Play that song!
00:06:00Play that song!
00:06:02God, where's Casey?
00:06:03She said she'd stay right here
00:06:04The show is a disaster
00:06:06The fans are waiting
00:06:07Can you please find her?
00:06:08I need her
00:06:08No, Dexter
00:06:10I'm the one you need
00:06:12What?
00:06:21This is Echo's North
00:06:25Are you her?
00:06:26Are you her?
00:06:31Listen
00:06:32Can you please save this song?
00:06:34I already did
00:06:38Wait
00:06:40Dexter, there's
00:06:42One more thing I should probably show you
00:06:46Casey has been hiding another man
00:06:54All those secret phone calls
00:06:56Dodged questions
00:06:57Casey was cheating on me this whole time?
00:07:00Dexter
00:07:01I'm so sorry
00:07:02I would never, never do this to you
00:07:07Thanks
00:07:15Wait
00:07:16Didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:07:18Uh
00:07:19And we're back
00:07:20Well, I wrote this song for the love of my life
00:07:26At least I thought so
00:07:35Get ready, Dex
00:07:36The mix to your next big single
00:07:38Is coming to you in
00:07:39Three
00:07:40Two
00:07:41One
00:07:45I'm a man as high
00:08:03Every time I look, I remember the time I saw you write
00:08:09One thing to remember by
00:08:12The time I looked into your eye
00:08:15The secret feeling again
00:08:17I know I was when I died
00:08:26A night
00:08:27Oh
00:08:28Oh
00:08:29Oh
00:08:29Oh
00:08:29Oh
00:08:30Oh
00:08:31Oh
00:08:35Oh
00:08:37Oh
00:08:39Oh
00:08:40Oh
00:08:41Oh
00:08:42Oh
00:08:42Oh
00:09:10How could Casey do this to me?
00:09:17Everyone, give it up for Dexter Hayes!
00:09:31He promised he'd call me up on stage to announce our relationship.
00:09:37I loved her, and she betrayed me.
00:09:51Oh my god!
00:09:52Dexie!
00:09:53Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:09:57Yes!
00:10:01Oh my god!
00:10:03Dexie!
00:10:04Yes!
00:10:06Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together.
00:10:10I thought Dexter loved me, trusted me.
00:10:15No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet, but she made my career and Casey betrayed me.
00:10:25It was all a lie.
00:10:28Alright.
00:10:29I can play along with his engagement, and I can move on from the woman who broke my heart.
00:10:37What?
00:10:42What?
00:10:43Hey, uh, Casey.
00:10:54You promised me that you'd tell the world about us tonight.
00:11:00Why?
00:11:01But instead, you propose and put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:07Casey, you gave me no choice.
00:11:10I gave you everything!
00:11:14I loved you!
00:11:15Do you love her?
00:11:17I owe her, okay?
00:11:20I owe her, alright?
00:11:21I don't...
00:11:22You owe her?
00:11:24Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plant.
00:11:28What has she ever done for you?
00:11:30Scarlet produced my career.
00:11:32She made me who I am today.
00:11:34Okay?
00:11:35So that's why.
00:11:36What are you talking about?
00:11:40Scarlet is Echo.
00:11:47You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:52Well, I know she is.
00:11:53You know what?
00:11:54I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done for me.
00:11:58And I feel like this is a good start.
00:12:03How could you believe her lies?
00:12:04Come on, all you do is lie.
00:12:09You know, I don't even know who you are anymore.
00:12:12Is this what you wanted all along?
00:12:14To be a music industry power couple?
00:12:18To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:22He could have had that with me.
00:12:25This is all you ever really cared about.
00:12:28Isn't it?
00:12:31Not loyalty.
00:12:32Just your music.
00:12:36What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:39Hm?
00:12:41This is my notebook.
00:12:44Full of songs that I wrote for Dexter's first triple platinum album.
00:12:49That's my notebook.
00:12:50How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:52I'm a musical genius.
00:12:55And you're just Dexter's little errand girl.
00:12:58Give it back!
00:12:59Dexter, she cut me!
00:13:02See what has gotten into you?
00:13:04I don't...
00:13:05I don't know who you are anymore.
00:13:07Dexy, baby.
00:13:08I know all about girls like her.
00:13:11They want fame and money without really ever having to work for it.
00:13:15She's taking advantage of you.
00:13:17She has been for years.
00:13:19Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this.
00:13:23Scarlet is not Echo!
00:13:24Then tell me why I shouldn't.
00:13:26Okay?
00:13:27Why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:31Go wait in the car, please.
00:13:37They're Casey.
00:13:43Look, I know that you've been hiding things.
00:13:46So, please just...
00:13:47Just tell me the truth.
00:13:49Okay, right now.
00:13:50Or we'll lose us forever.
00:13:54Please.
00:13:58Please.
00:14:07The truth doesn't matter anymore.
00:14:10You don't trust me anyway.
00:14:16We're over.
00:14:19Dex.
00:14:22Goodbye.
00:14:23Forever.
00:14:43The hottest rock star on the planet is officially off the market.
00:14:48Dexter Hayes popped the question to up-and-coming singer Scarlet Hart tonight and she said yes.
00:14:59She said yes.
00:14:59She said yes.
00:15:00I gave Dex everything.
00:15:03I made his career, but...
00:15:05He doesn't want me.
00:15:07He never did.

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