Short filmTranscript
00:00:18My name is Casey Reed. No one knows I'm the heiress of Reed Records, the billion-dollar
00:00:24music empire, or that I'm Echo, the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys. I chose to
00:00:31stay invisible because I fell for the one man I shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes, the rock star
00:00:37I secretly built from the ground up. I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter.
00:00:44We share the same music, but never the same spotlight.
00:00:49Will you spit in my mouth?
00:01:01Dex, we're backstage. Someone might see us.
00:01:07I am so done hiding you.
00:01:10I have no idea what you do to me, okay? So you make me feel. You are my favorite song.
00:01:21I lose control. My little moon.
00:01:27I want you, Dex. I need you.
00:01:34Good.
00:01:37And because you're already mine, I'm gonna call you on that stage tonight. I'm gonna sing
00:01:44the song that I wrote to you. And I'm gonna kiss you in front of anybody. I'm gonna claim
00:01:49every interview. Note by note. In front of the whole world.
00:02:10Hey, Keith, um, what's with all the secret phone calls? Just, what are you hiding?
00:02:17Nothing. It's just work stuff.
00:02:22It's time I come clean, too. Once he finishes this concert, the Echo mask will come off. And I can
00:02:29finally be the real me. His Echo and his Casey. Thank you.
00:02:36You are gonna be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:51I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:02We don't call it pretty. We know better than that.
00:03:06It's me. I think I'll fight for our city.
00:03:09I'm êµë¯¼ stuff herty is bad.
00:03:12I can't wait to wait.
00:03:14You want me, it's not my thing.
00:03:16I need champagne to Spain.
00:03:25And now, for the star of our show, the world's hottest pop star, and my soulmate, Dexter Hayes.
00:03:38Wait for me, right here?
00:03:43Dexter Hayes is my ticket to the top of the charts,
00:03:46but I'll never lock him down as long as he's in bed with his grumpy assistant.
00:03:51A lot of applause for Scarlet Heart, everybody!
00:03:57Fans already love us.
00:03:58Dexter Hayes, you will be mine.
00:04:03Scarlet Heart.
00:04:04Dexter Hayes' groupie-turned-wannabe pop queen.
00:04:07She's always throwing herself at my boyfriend.
00:04:10Maybe once he puts a ring on it tonight, she'll finally take the hint.
00:04:14I've got a really special one for you all tonight.
00:04:17Hope you enjoy.
00:04:27Shit!
00:04:28The backing mix is corrupted.
00:04:30I can't let Dex's show get ruined.
00:04:32And Echo can fix this.
00:04:37Are you here?
00:04:38I need your help.
00:04:41What the hell is she up to?
00:04:46Well, I guess the system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes, so...
00:04:51I'll be right back.
00:04:56There.
00:04:57Your gear from the studio.
00:04:59Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:05:01Dad!
00:05:02We've talked about this.
00:05:03In public, I am not your daughter, and I'm not Echo.
00:05:06But Dexter should know how hard you've worked for him.
00:05:09You made him the star he is.
00:05:13I'm telling him tonight.
00:05:14But for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:18Oh, that's my girl.
00:05:21When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms.
00:05:44Oh, my God.
00:05:46These are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs.
00:05:48Is Casey the echo?
00:05:59Time to save Dex's concert.
00:06:02Play that song!
00:06:03Play that song!
00:06:05God, where's Casey?
00:06:06She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:07The show is a disaster.
00:06:09The fans are waiting.
00:06:10Can you please find her?
00:06:11I need her.
00:06:11No, Dexter.
00:06:13I'm the one you need.
00:06:15What?
00:06:17What?
00:06:24This is Echo's novel.
00:06:28Are you her?
00:06:30Are you her?
00:06:35Listen, can you please save this song?
00:06:38I already did.
00:06:42Wait.
00:06:44Dexter, there's one more thing I should probably show you.
00:06:48Well, Casey has been hiding another man.
00:06:57All those secret phone calls, dodged questions.
00:07:00Casey was cheating on me this whole time?
00:07:03Dexter, I'm so sorry.
00:07:06I would never, never do this to you.
00:07:10Thanks.
00:07:19Wait, didn't Echo just mix a new track?
00:07:22Uh, and we're back.
00:07:24Well, I wrote this song for the love of my life.
00:07:29At least I thought so.
00:07:39Get ready, Dex.
00:07:40The next, your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:07:48I'm a man, I'm a man.
00:07:54I'm a man.
00:08:07Every time I look, I remember the time I saw you, I
00:08:13One thing to remember you by, the time I looked into your eye
00:08:18The secret feeling again, I know I was running out of time
00:08:35The secret feeling again, I was running out of time
00:08:55The secret feeling again, I was running out of time
00:09:14The secret feeling again, I was running out of time
00:09:15How could Casey do this to me?
00:09:21Everyone give it up for Dexter Hayes
00:09:35He promised he'd call me up on stage to announce our relationship
00:09:40I loved her, and she betrayed me
00:09:54Oh my god, Dexie!
00:09:57Oh my god, is he proposing to Scarlet Heart?
00:10:01Yes!
00:10:05Oh my god, Dexie!
00:10:08Yes!
00:10:10Tonight was supposed to be the start of our new life together
00:10:14I thought Dexter loved me, trusted me
00:10:19No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet
00:10:22But she made my career, and Casey betrayed me
00:10:29It was all a lie
00:10:33Alright, I can play along with his engagement
00:10:36And I can move on from the woman who broke my heart
00:10:46Hey, uh, Casey
00:10:57You promised me
00:11:02That you'd tell the world about us tonight
00:11:04But instead, you'd propose
00:11:07And put a ring on Scarlet Heart's finger?
00:11:11Casey, you-you-you gave me no choice
00:11:14I gave you everything
00:11:18I loved you, do you love her?
00:11:22I owe her
00:11:23I owe her, okay?
00:11:24I-I-I-I-I owe her, alright? I don't-
00:11:26You owe her?
00:11:29Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plant
00:11:32What has she ever done for you?
00:11:34Scarlet produced my career
00:11:36She made me who I am today
00:11:38Okay, so-so-so that's why
00:11:41What are you talking about?
00:11:45Scarlet is Echo
00:11:53You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:57Well, I know she is
00:11:58You know what?
00:11:59I'll never be able to thank her enough for everything she's done for me
00:12:03And I feel like this is a good start
00:12:08How could you believe her lies?
00:12:10Come on, all you do is lie
00:12:14You know, I don't even know who you are anymore
00:12:17Is this what you wanted all along?
00:12:19To be a music industry power couple?
00:12:23To please your adoring fans to boost your sales?
00:12:27He could have had that with me
00:12:30This is all you ever really cared about
00:12:33Isn't it?
00:12:36Not loyalty
00:12:37Just
00:12:39Your music
00:12:41What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:46This
00:12:47Is my notebook
00:12:49Full of songs that I wrote
00:12:51For Dexter's first triple platinum album
00:12:53That's my notebook
00:12:55How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:57I'm a musical genius
00:13:00And you're just
00:13:01Dexter's little errand girl
00:13:03Give it back!
00:13:04Ow!
00:13:05Dexter she cut me
00:13:07See what has gotten into you?
00:13:09I don't
00:13:10I don't know who you are anymore
00:13:11Dexter, baby
00:13:14I know
00:13:14All about girls like her
00:13:16They want fame and money
00:13:18Without really ever having to work for it
00:13:20She's taking advantage of you
00:13:22She has been for years
00:13:25Dexter, you can't seriously be believing this
00:13:27Scarlet is not Echo
00:13:29Then tell me why I shouldn't
00:13:31Okay, why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:36Go wait in the car
00:13:37Go wait in the car
00:13:43Casey
00:13:48Look, I know that you've been hiding things
00:13:51So please just
00:13:52Just tell me the truth
00:13:53Okay, right now
00:13:55Or we'll lose us forever
00:14:00Please
00:14:04Please
00:14:13The truth doesn't matter anymore
00:14:15You don't trust me anyway
00:14:21We're over
00:14:23Dex
00:14:27Goodbye
00:14:28Forever
00:14:49The hottest rock star on the planet is officially off the market
00:14:53Dexter Hayes popped the question to up and coming singer Scarlet Hart tonight and she said yes
00:15:04Dad
00:15:06I gave Dex everything
00:15:08I made his career but
00:15:11He doesn't want me
00:15:12He never did
00:15:13What happened princess?
00:15:16Scarlet Hart
00:15:17She stole him and now she's trying to steal my identity
00:15:21I'll come get you
00:15:23I
00:15:26Casey
00:15:27Casey, where are you?
00:15:38It looks like Dexter's whore is awake
00:15:41Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man
00:15:46Who are you?
00:15:48Let me go
00:15:49Don't worry Scarlet
00:15:51We won't hurt you
00:15:52We're your friends too
00:15:54We've always shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Hart
00:15:57We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson
00:16:01We saw you kissing Dexter backstage
00:16:05You're trying to steal him from his soul mate
00:16:09I wasn't stealing him
00:16:10We were in love
00:16:13Or I thought we were
00:16:14We'll see about that won't we
00:16:17The only way you'll live tonight
00:16:21Is if Dexter chooses to save you
00:16:28Who the hell is everybody?
00:16:32Dressing room, come alone
00:16:34Choose to save Scarlet Hart and we'll spare them
00:16:38Choose your little assistant and they both die
00:16:43You've reached Casey
00:16:44I can't come to the phone right now
00:16:47Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:51Casey?
00:16:52So she never left the concert
00:16:54Get back to the concert hall now
00:16:57Dexter is coming
00:16:59We'll see who his true love is
00:17:01You psychos
00:17:04Are you hoping that he chooses you over his fiancee?
00:17:09Obviously not
00:17:11She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry
00:17:14You fucked him too?
00:17:17God, our precious Dexter
00:17:20Soiled by a dirty star fucker
00:17:23Girls like you don't deserve him
00:17:25You don't deserve to live
00:17:27No one knows what the real Echo looks like
00:17:30So, if Casey dies
00:17:33Then the truth dies with her
00:17:35That's not true
00:17:37First you steal my identity
00:17:39Now you're trying to get me murdered
00:17:40You're psychotic
00:17:42No, don't worry Casey
00:17:43If you die today, Dex and I will make a song about you
00:17:46And maybe it'll even be the lead single on our new album
00:17:50You're crazier than they are
00:17:52Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:59Casey?
00:17:59Dex?
00:18:06Dexter!
00:18:07Dexter!
00:18:08Dexter! Dexter help me!
00:18:12They hit me and then they tied me up
00:18:14And now they're trying to kill me
00:18:17Okay guys, let's
00:18:19Let's just put the guns down, okay?
00:18:21We can't do that Dexter
00:18:23We're your biggest fans
00:18:25We're doing this for you
00:18:28Okay, well if you love me
00:18:30Alright, you'll put the gun down
00:18:32And then let these two go, please
00:18:34No, that's not how this works
00:18:36Dexie
00:18:37You would be nothing without Echo
00:18:40We're engaged now, you can't let me die
00:18:43Dex, all the love we ever had
00:18:45All the memories, all the I love you's you told me
00:18:49Did they mean anything?
00:18:51You must choose one to live
00:18:53Will it be your future wife?
00:18:57Or your mistress?
00:18:59Who really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:03They said if I don't choose Scarlet, then they both die
00:19:06I can save Casey, but I...
00:19:08I have to break her heart
00:19:11Which one really holds the key to your heart, Dexter Hayes?
00:19:19You never really loved me, did you?
00:19:22And you loved him?
00:19:25You leeched off him for half a decade
00:19:27If that's what you really think, Dex
00:19:30Go ahead, make your choice
00:19:32Choose now or they both die
00:19:34Dexter, Dexter, please
00:19:36Think of everything I've done for you
00:19:38You dumped her, you chose me, don't let them murder me
00:19:42That's enough
00:19:43We're pulling the trigger in three
00:19:47Two
00:19:48One
00:19:49Okay, okay, okay
00:19:50I can't risk them killing Casey
00:19:53Scarlet, alright?
00:19:54I choose Scarlet
00:19:59Dexter, I'm gonna faint
00:20:01I was so scared
00:20:03He chose Scarlet?
00:20:06Good choice, cheating whores deserve to die
00:20:09Now wait a minute, you told me that
00:20:11You made your choice, Dexter Hayes
00:20:13Now you get to be the one who saved your soulmate
00:20:17And we'll take care of your scandalous side piece
00:20:20No, no, no, no, no, no
00:20:21I guess...
00:20:28This is the end
00:20:34Goodbye, Dexter
00:20:36Put the gun down!
00:20:39Put the gun down!
00:20:41Goodbye, Dexter
00:20:42Hey, throw out the gun!
00:20:54Let's go, let's go
00:20:55Let's go, let's go, okay
00:20:56Oh, come on, okay
00:20:58Alright
00:21:03It's gonna be okay
00:21:04It's gonna be okay
00:21:05Okay?
00:21:06You left me to die!
00:21:08And for the record, I never needed your money
00:21:10I was right to walk away
00:21:13Staying with you was the biggest mistake I've ever made
00:21:17Look, Casey, you don't understand, alright?
00:21:19They were gonna make me
00:21:20I'm...
00:21:21I'm...
00:21:22Done...
00:21:23Living...
00:21:23In your shadow, Dex
00:21:24Goodbye
00:21:30Casey, Casey
00:21:31Hey
00:21:40Casey
00:21:42Casey, stop!
00:21:43Please, stop!
00:21:43Please, please
00:21:44We're gonna go...
00:21:45Okay, what are you gonna do without all this?
00:21:47You should be asking yourself that same question
00:21:51Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone
00:21:53You're delusional
00:21:55He doesn't need you
00:21:56He has Echo
00:21:58Yeah...
00:21:59Sure he does
00:22:00Fame really has changed you, Dexter Hayes
00:22:07Fame changed me?
00:22:09Okay
00:22:11And what about you?
00:22:12You're the one that's been sneaking around behind my back this whole time
00:22:17I never betrayed you how you betrayed me by putting that ring on Scarlet's finger
00:22:22You chose her and you left me for dead
00:22:26No, Casey, you don't understand, I was trying to...
00:22:53Oh my god, that's... that's... that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:56Oh my god, that's... that's... that's Ed Reed, the CEO of Reed Records!
00:22:59I'm so sorry I didn't come sooner, baby girl
00:23:04You're here now
00:23:06Take me home
00:23:16I want to see you!
00:23:21Sex it!
00:23:22I've been, I've been there for the years
00:23:24You have everything you ever wanted!
00:23:26You're mine!
00:23:27I was trying to...
00:23:28Take me home!
00:23:30It's yours!
00:23:30If you want...
00:23:36You're mine...
00:23:36You're mine!
00:23:37KC!
00:23:37You're not a kill!
00:23:38You have to kill me!
00:23:40KC!
00:23:41KC!
00:23:43Let me explain!
00:23:48Scarlett.
00:23:49Mrs. Hayes.
00:23:50You should have seen it.
00:23:52I almost died.
00:23:53And that desperate skank cheated on Dexter with some sugar daddy.
00:23:57I always knew she was a gold digger.
00:24:00She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:24:02And when that failed, she went after the CEO of the biggest music label in the world.
00:24:08Dexter, she never cared about you.
00:24:11She's been lying to you this entire time.
00:24:13All she ever cared about was money and power.
00:24:16I thought KC loved me.
00:24:18But the whole time, she was in bed with the CEO of Reed Records.
00:24:27Forget him, princess.
00:24:29You are much too talented to be running some rockstar errands.
00:24:34How could I be so blind?
00:24:38Three days from now, at the annual Music Hall of Fame Gala, announcing you as the new CEO of Reed
00:24:45Records.
00:24:46And my daughter, the heiress to my empire.
00:24:49It's time to show the world who you really are.
00:25:01My back is pressed.
00:25:09My back is pressed.
00:25:11My back is pressed.
00:25:16No, no.
00:25:19Okay.
00:25:19Guys, cut the track...
00:25:24The damn thing is in the wrong key.
00:25:27Look, guys, we have one week to finish this song before the release.
00:25:32The Echo that I know can put together a perfect studio mix in hours.
00:25:37You can't even fix a simple beat or a key.
00:25:41What's going on?
00:25:43Look, Scarlett, I just gotta ask.
00:25:45Are you really Echo?
00:25:51Are you really Echo?
00:25:55Dexy.
00:25:57Of course I am.
00:25:59It's just your new assistant.
00:26:02He's been messing, he's messing with my tracks.
00:26:05He's obviously trying to sabotage our new album.
00:26:08I mean, look.
00:26:11Last saved by Max.
00:26:13Yeah, that's because you don't know how to...
00:26:15Okay, you know what?
00:26:16Echo would never put her name on garbage like this.
00:26:20Mr. Hayes, please, listen.
00:26:23It's Dexter.
00:26:24And I'm sorry, but my last assistant would have never screamed over like that.
00:26:29You're fired.
00:26:53Good luck staying at the top of the charts once I'm gone.
00:26:56Writing love songs used to be so easy with Casey here.
00:27:13We're sorry.
00:27:14You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:27:19All right, she broke my heart and she moved on.
00:27:22So why can't I do the same?
00:27:33No.
00:27:36No.
00:27:37No.
00:27:39No.
00:27:40No.

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