00:00:09We are bringing you live coverage from the Record Academy Awards.
00:00:12And now, gracing the red carpet is Ralph Farswald, the driving force behind CR Entertainment
00:00:17Group, and one of the most eligible bachelors in show business.
00:00:27So many beautiful young ladies.
00:00:30Have you picked your future wife yet?
00:00:32Mom, please.
00:00:33I'm not going on my retreat until I've seen you settle down.
00:00:42I'm already married.
00:00:43When?
00:00:47This is her.
00:00:52David.
00:00:53Boss.
00:00:54I need someone to pretend to be my wife.
00:01:02Oh, finally decided to grace us with your presence.
00:01:07Oh, I arranged your marriage.
00:01:09The Chelsea family's heir?
00:01:11Sure, their instrument chain stores would be a valuable partnership.
00:01:16I don't want-
00:01:18Want?
00:01:19Since when does what you want matter?
00:01:22But you can't make her marry him.
00:01:24He's sick.
00:01:26Everyone knows-
00:01:26Shut up!
00:01:27She's not even your real sister.
00:01:29Would you rather be out on the streets when our company goes under?
00:01:31I can't marry him.
00:01:33Why not?
00:01:35Because I'm already married.
00:01:36Oh, this is bullshit, and you know it!
00:01:38Show me the marriage certificate.
00:01:39Okay.
00:01:39I said, show me a marriage certificate.
00:01:42Okay.
00:01:43I will.
00:01:46It better be a real one!
00:01:51Hi, Jerry.
00:01:52Price just doubled.
00:01:53Two grand.
00:01:56For a fake marriage.
00:01:58I wouldn't send that on a real marriage, Jerry.
00:02:01Two grand.
00:02:02On no deal.
00:02:06My boss who made it?
00:02:17You okay?
00:02:18You can always change your mind.
00:02:20I said, show me a marriage certificate!
00:02:24Yeah, I'm okay.
00:02:25back! Yes! Lost
00:02:32in memories
00:02:33of you... A face I
00:02:37can't ignore... Woo! pretty
00:02:47voice!
00:02:48Dreaming face?
00:02:50Is this enough?
00:02:52The wrestling artist shows profound lack of class.
00:02:56I suggest you leave this city.
00:03:13Your voice.
00:03:15Don't give up on the news.
00:03:17CR Entertainment is always looking for new talents.
00:03:24Good luck.
00:03:32Gentlemen, I'm sorry to interrupt. Forgive me.
00:03:35Boss, your mother's private plane just took off.
00:03:38She's very pleased about the marriage.
00:03:41At least someone is.
00:03:43Sorry, boss. I must have left a marriage certificate somewhere.
00:03:49And she didn't call back.
00:03:51Has your wife replied yet?
00:03:53She never wants to meet me.
00:03:56Let's get out of here.
00:04:02I mean, it's ridiculous.
00:04:04What? A ghost?
00:04:06Well, it's not bad to get a beautiful couture and necklace.
00:04:09I am sorry that this is all so rushed.
00:04:12My boss wishes he could be here.
00:04:14This is from him.
00:04:16A wedding present.
00:04:23Hmm. And you never tried to find him?
00:04:26Maybe he doesn't want to be found.
00:04:38So you actually did it.
00:04:41Found someone desperate.
00:04:44Enough to marry you.
00:04:46Well, I'm singing on the streets now.
00:04:49So I'm pretty sure however I lead my life,
00:04:51I'm not your burden anymore.
00:04:52Oh, a street performer?
00:04:55Oh.
00:04:57How fitting.
00:04:59You're finally at your level.
00:05:06Since you're a married woman now,
00:05:08don't bother coming back.
00:05:11Although I doubt your husband wants you either.
00:05:16I doubt yours ever did.
00:05:19Say that again?
00:05:20You heard me.
00:05:23Should have left this house long ago like her bitch mother.
00:05:34Oh.
00:05:35Oh.
00:05:36Oh.
00:05:37Sorry.
00:05:38Are you okay?
00:05:39I'm not going to be helpful.
00:05:40Oh, my dear.
00:05:41Wait, wait, wait.
00:05:43Sorry.
00:05:43Here.
00:05:44Maybe this will help the swelling.
00:05:47Oh, thank you.
00:05:49My mum taught me this actually.
00:05:5120 minutes of cold and then gentle movement.
00:05:54Such a kind girl.
00:05:59A few delays, but you know, that's what happens when I find foot at airport.
00:06:02When...
00:06:04Mum.
00:06:06You were supposed to be in Switzerland.
00:06:08I wanted to surprise my son and mysterious daughter-in-law.
00:06:12I went via your house first.
00:06:14One toothbrush, one coffee mug, one set of everything.
00:06:19Mum.
00:06:19Show me the marriage certificate.
00:06:22I...
00:06:27I lost it.
00:06:28Then introduce me to her.
00:06:30Tonight.
00:06:31No excuses.
00:06:34Boss.
00:06:35I found her.
00:06:39How a nice day, man.
00:06:42Sure, boss.
00:06:43We have the limited edition Hermes bag and...
00:06:47This place.
00:06:49Call the real estate division.
00:06:50I want two penthouses in Central Gardens.
00:06:52The one with the Riverview.
00:06:53Yes, sir.
00:07:03Hey.
00:07:04This is Rafe.
00:07:05Rafe.
00:07:06Your husband.
00:07:07My husband.
00:07:09Honey.
00:07:11Honey.
00:07:11Dinner's ready.
00:07:12I see that you're busy.
00:07:16Ooh.
00:07:17That's really good.
00:07:18Smells good, too.
00:07:19Thank you, honey.
00:07:21OK, boss.
00:07:22That's all sorted.
00:07:24She's with another man.
00:07:26I'm sorry.
00:07:31Get me the best divorce law in the city.
00:07:33Are you sure?
00:07:34Your mother...
00:07:35Will have to understand.
00:07:48You are late.
00:07:49Position three.
00:07:53Seriously?
00:07:54Amateur hour?
00:07:55I'm so sorry.
00:07:57I'm so sorry.
00:07:57I'm so sorry.
00:07:59I'm flying and we're...
00:08:01We're close and we're...
00:08:04The mute.
00:08:06Right, so first you're late and now you're mute.
00:08:08What is wrong with you?
00:08:11I want her out.
00:08:13What kind of amateur doesn't silence their phone?
00:08:15This is Sea Art Entertainment.
00:08:16Not some karaoke bar.
00:08:18I'm so sorry.
00:08:19I can hear you, please.
00:08:20She just went to my session.
00:08:21She's degrading the company's reputation.
00:08:23The only one degrading this company is you.
00:08:26Mr. Fastfold, I didn't...
00:08:27Clearly.
00:08:29Look.
00:08:29She showed up late.
00:08:31She's ruined my session.
00:08:32She doesn't know how things work.
00:08:34And you think treating people like garbage is how things work here?
00:08:40Cancel her next album.
00:08:41Please, no.
00:08:42No, I just...
00:08:43Just what?
00:08:44Show me exactly who you are?
00:08:47It won't happen again.
00:08:49I'll be better next time.
00:08:50I promise.
00:08:58Thank you, Mr. Fastfold.
00:09:00Call me, Rafe.
00:09:03You are?
00:09:04Mona.
00:09:05Mona?
00:09:08Sounds familiar.
00:09:13Mona?
00:09:16Sounds familiar.
00:09:19Sounds familiar.
00:09:24Boss, preliminary round will be held tonight.
00:09:35Have I been missing you?
00:09:41Hello?
00:09:42Mona!
00:09:43You're not going to believe this!
00:09:45What?
00:09:45The biggest songwriting show in the country and you're in!
00:09:49What?
00:09:49But I never...
00:09:50Preliminary round is tonight.
00:09:52You have to go!
00:09:57Mama!
00:09:59Mama!
00:10:02Mama!
00:10:02Mama!
00:10:06You can't be here!
00:10:08How dare!
00:10:11How dare!
00:10:14You come near my daughter with those filthy hands.
00:10:17Do you know who she will become?
00:10:19She is the next rising star of CR Entertainment!
00:10:23And you?
00:10:23You are a nobody!
00:10:25You get lost on your way to the service entrance.
00:10:28I hear the catering staff are looking for an extra pair of hands.
00:10:35Original songs?
00:10:37Please.
00:10:39Look at you, Mona.
00:10:40Discount store clothes, unwashed hair.
00:10:43Have some dignity.
00:10:45Know your place.
00:10:46Which is in the gutter.
00:10:48Where you along.
00:10:50Mom!
00:10:51Mia!
00:10:51Not another word.
00:10:53I would like you to focus on your debut.
00:10:56This show is CR Entertainment's flagship project.
00:11:00The winner becomes an instant celebrity.
00:11:04Mia will have her own recording contract.
00:11:07And Ben, and...
00:11:09Let's just say you will never breathe the same air as us.
00:11:14Again, you are not fit to be our relative anyway.
00:11:32You are not fit to be our relative.
00:11:34Yeah, we are not going to let you get away with this.
00:11:36It's just that easy.
00:11:38You are going to make us look like fools.
00:11:40If word gets out that Mia's stepsister is a street performer, you are going to ruin everything.
00:11:48She needs to learn her place.
00:11:51No, no.
00:11:51Oh, are you running away?
00:11:53Just like you would always run away from your family?
00:11:56Pretending you were an artist living on the streets?
00:11:59I am talking to you.
00:12:01Let's see how well you perform without this precious guitar of yours.
00:12:05Shut up!
00:12:06Shut up!
00:12:07Shut up!
00:12:08Shut up!
00:12:09Shut up!
00:12:12Shut up!
00:12:19Shut up!
00:12:24Shut up!
00:12:39Oh, what do we have here?
00:12:46A little too luxurious for someone living off charity, isn't it?
00:12:55What designer store did you steal from this time?
00:12:58The necklace.
00:13:02Mr. Fussel, we have gathered the finest young talent.
00:13:06Your investment should be a very...
00:13:08We've gone out of the financials.
00:13:10I am so sorry to interrupt.
00:13:13Boss, the Pierre Blanche diamond necklace.
00:13:16Your wife's necklace.
00:13:18I just saw it.
00:13:19I've got my outflow.
00:13:20Could that be?
00:13:21Possibly.
00:13:22I didn't get a good look.
00:13:23What designer store did you steal from this time?
00:13:27Mona, did you really steal this?
00:13:29Mia?
00:13:31No, God.
00:13:32Not you too.
00:13:34You don't believe me.
00:13:35Ladies and gentlemen, we have a thief amongst our midst.
00:13:40Security!
00:13:42I want to see what other valuables she's taken.
00:13:47A sandwich wrapped in newspaper.
00:13:51How pathetic.
00:13:53Search her thoroughly.
00:13:55I want everyone to see what sort of criminal can sneak into my venue.
00:14:00Hold her down.
00:14:01Hold her down.
00:14:02We need to see what other expensive items are still.
00:14:05Hang-chan's in it.
00:14:06Stop!
00:14:11Take your hands off.
00:14:19Look who's playing knight in shining armor.
00:14:23Some nobody trying to act important.
00:14:25What are you, a waiter?
00:14:27Oh, no, no.
00:14:28A valet parker?
00:14:29Ignore your plays.
00:14:30Evidence of theft?
00:14:31Or is wealth your only measure of character?
00:14:35Who do you think you are?
00:14:36This is my territory.
00:14:38Ben controls this show.
00:14:40He's the producer.
00:14:41So I would like you to apologize now, or we'll destroy you both.
00:14:46A producer wielding such power?
00:14:48Mm-hmm.
00:14:49Interesting.
00:14:50See our entertainment.
00:14:52You ever heard of it?
00:14:54It's worth billions.
00:14:56And they are sponsoring our show.
00:14:58Well, I will be choosing tomorrow's star.
00:15:01Therefore, my net worth will skyrocket.
00:15:06So I'd pipe down if I were you.
00:15:08Well, I'll make sure you never work in this city again.
00:15:16See our entertainment won't be sponsoring anything today.
00:15:20Well, the CEO and the chairman have already sealed a deal.
00:15:24Perhaps your CEO should hear this directly.
00:15:29I swear, if you can get the CEO down here, I'll bet on my mother's grave.
00:15:37What is going on?
00:15:39He is an imposter.
00:15:41Your producer physically assaults contestants.
00:15:43Accuses them of theft without evidence.
00:15:46Makes a mockery of real talent.
00:15:48Your show just lost its sponsorship and its future.
00:15:52You incompetent bullies!
00:15:55Mr. Yang!
00:15:56I think there's sort of misunderstanding.
00:15:58Silence!
00:15:59Do you have any idea what you have done?
00:16:02That sponsorship is worth millions.
00:16:04If you have lost the CR entertainers because of your stupidity,
00:16:09I will take everything you own.
00:16:12Your house, your car.
00:16:14No, no, no, no, no, no, Mr. Yang.
00:16:16There has to be something that we can do to resolve misunderstanding.
00:16:21We have it all on video.
00:16:23Mr. Chairman, I didn't know.
00:16:25Exactly, you didn't know.
00:16:27Yet, you felt entitled to abuse your power.
00:16:31Your company's reputation rests on his behavior today.
00:16:33Choose wisely.
00:16:35I believe the show needs new management.
00:16:38Someone who understands that talent isn't measured by the price of their clothes.
00:16:43Mr. Fastfold, I assure you, his idiocy is not representative of our company's collective intelligence.
00:16:53Intelligence isn't the issue.
00:16:54It's malice.
00:16:56The sponsorship deal is dead.
00:17:04As I was saying, I think we need to sit down and discuss this misunderstanding.
00:17:11That's all it is.
00:17:12What is this?
00:17:12No, no, no.
00:17:12You fools!
00:17:14All of you!
00:17:15The legal expenses alone will bankrupt you!
00:17:18And take your scheming family with you!
00:17:23Six years.
00:17:27Every song, every memory.
00:17:30You're right.
00:17:31This guitar was all I had left.
00:17:35You're really nice to your co-workers.
00:17:37Not your co-workers, your employees.
00:17:40Do you have a Pierre Blanche?
00:17:43Pierre?
00:17:44Is that a song title?
00:17:45I don't remember writing anything like that.
00:17:47No.
00:17:48It seems to be a misunderstanding.
00:17:50What a shame.
00:17:53But I wrote Midnight Rain and Have I Been Missing You?
00:17:58It was actually chosen for this music competition, but that's why I came tonight.
00:18:02Since we're cancelling a sponsorship of this show, CR Entertainment will be making its own music competition.
00:18:08Would you be interested in participating?
00:18:12Tell me about your music.
00:18:13What's your style?
00:18:14I wish I could play it for you.
00:18:17I...
00:18:17Monday.
00:18:183.30.
00:18:20Vinyl Dreams.
00:18:21Off Brick Lane.
00:18:22I'll play some of my demos for you.
00:18:26So?
00:18:27Where is she?
00:18:28Where's my daughter-in-law?
00:18:30It's been days, Rafe.
00:18:32You're hiding your wife from me, aren't you?
00:18:35Another one of your ploys to avoid settling down.
00:18:38It's complicated, Mum.
00:18:40Complicated how?
00:18:42Has she been unfaithful?
00:18:44I'm so sorry.
00:18:46I should have...
00:18:48Look at you.
00:18:49So worried.
00:18:51And a man like you who could have anyone.
00:18:54There must be a misunderstanding.
00:18:56Marriage is fate's arrangement.
00:18:58If you found each other once,
00:19:01you just need to talk it through.
00:19:08I'm sorry.
00:19:34Come to know what it is
00:19:39If it all falls
00:19:41Within this place
00:19:44I will still breathe
00:19:52What do you think?
00:19:55Beautiful.
00:19:58The sun.
00:19:59I mean.
00:20:00It's what I mean.
00:20:04It's got sort of...
00:20:07emotional quality to it.
00:20:11It's been sad in the suit.
00:20:14After my father passed
00:20:16my house didn't really feel like home anymore.
00:20:20My stepmother made sure of that.
00:20:22What happened?
00:20:23I had to leave everything
00:20:25behind.
00:20:26My music, school scholarship, my...
00:20:29I mean, everything.
00:20:32I, um...
00:20:34I could never quit music, though.
00:20:37Even when serving coffee
00:20:39or singing for loose change,
00:20:42the melodies just kept coming.
00:20:47Okay, I want to share something with you.
00:20:51What is it?
00:20:52The first album
00:20:53that made me fall in love with music.
00:20:59Come down in these velvet eyes
00:21:06and hide away with me.
00:21:11and hide away with me.
00:21:22Come down in these velvet eyes
00:21:34making me fall in love with me.
00:22:00The artist I wanted to show you.
00:22:05The backup singer for Stephanie, I need that job.
00:22:12I'm sorry, I don't want to mess it up and I don't want to miss the opportunity.
00:22:16You might, unless, unless you agree to be my wife.
00:22:33My mom's health isn't great, she needs treatment, an operation, go to Europe.
00:22:44She's obsessed about me settling down first.
00:22:48You need, um, someone to play the part.
00:22:52Just one dinner.
00:22:53Help me convince her I'm happy.
00:22:56She'll focus on health.
00:22:57I mean, you defended me with Lisa the other day and everybody, so how can I say no?
00:23:11Cool.
00:23:20That sounds beautiful.
00:23:24I have news.
00:23:25Guys, that original song of yours, we want you to perform it today.
00:23:29There's someone very special who wants to hear it.
00:23:31What?
00:23:32Are you...
00:23:32Someone wants to hear my song?
00:23:34Oh God.
00:23:45Sorry.
00:23:46I don't mind.
00:23:59Oh!
00:24:01Hello sweetie.
00:24:03Has anyone told you about the special guest today?
00:24:05He's only the biggest producer, like ever.
00:24:08Alexander Adams?
00:24:09Ring any bells?
00:24:10He's responsible for all the major superstars.
00:24:15Singers.
00:24:15He is incredibly selective.
00:24:18He's only going to listen to one song to decide if he'll be the mentor of our show.
00:24:22One song?
00:24:23Yeah.
00:24:24Mr. Fassfeld is, uh, dying to get his hands on him.
00:24:27The future of the company depends on it.
00:24:29Well, I won't let him down.
00:24:31Exactly.
00:24:33Don't mess it up.
00:24:44Is that the backup singer?
00:24:46She looks like a star.
00:24:58Wait!
00:24:59The backing track!
00:25:00It's gone!
00:25:02Someone's wiped the entire system clean!
00:25:09Amateur hour?
00:25:10How convenient!
00:25:13Deleting your whole backing track when you know you can't perform!
00:25:19Is this how CR Entertainment runs things now, huh?
00:25:26Get off the stage!
00:25:27We came to see professionals!
00:25:34Is that Mr. Fassfold?
00:25:35See you.
00:25:49I'm your host of the Fassfolds!
00:25:55I am your host of the Fassfold.
00:26:02I am your host of The Fassfold.
00:26:04So you've made a show of the Lens of Boundary.
00:26:04The Fassfold?
00:26:05I can't ignore, this is my redemption days, for all of my loves, my faith will gain.
00:26:37A thought of me found a place, he never was lost, but I found my faith, how I've been missing
00:26:59you.
00:27:08Incredible.
00:27:09Where has she been hiding?
00:27:11Such raw emotion, such authenticity, this is what music is all about.
00:27:18Impossible!
00:27:19Who is she?
00:27:21Which company represents her?
00:27:30And you are?
00:27:32Mona Corbett.
00:27:34Alexander Adam.
00:27:37Your voice, it touches something deep within my soul.
00:27:43You'll have to join me for dinner, I would love to discuss your artistic vision.
00:27:49You remind me of a young Joan Baez, the same raw emotion.
00:27:56Perhaps we can collaborate on your debut album.
00:28:00I have a private studio in Milan.
00:28:03She's quite extraordinary.
00:28:04Mr. Fastfold, you've been holding out on us.
00:28:08Is Mona your company's next big project?
00:28:13She's very special.
00:28:19She's very special.
00:28:23At CR in Stainless.
00:28:24I'm, I'm just, definitely a snag at singer.
00:28:29Actually, her songwriting talent is quite extraordinary.
00:28:33She's the cornerstone of CR's next major project.
00:28:37This company was created with artists like her in mind.
00:28:40Wait.
00:28:42Really?
00:28:43That means, uh...
00:28:44Rafe.
00:28:45You've convinced me.
00:28:47Look, I would be delighted to be your mentor.
00:28:53Just keep me in the loop, yeah?
00:29:01You remembered my song?
00:29:02What?
00:29:03You remembered my song?
00:29:06What?
00:29:06I hadn't played that for you since the record store it.
00:29:09Well, I couldn't forget it even if I tried.
00:29:14You believed in me when nobody else would.
00:29:22What?
00:29:23What a lovely performance.
00:29:26Congratulations.
00:29:28Excuse me.
00:29:29What?
00:29:29So we've been able to confirm it.
00:29:31The security footage shows Stephanie accessing the sound system,
00:29:34deliberately erasing the backing track.
00:29:37Did you think I wouldn't find out?
00:29:38What are you doing?
00:29:40Get out!
00:29:41You just tried to destroy someone's dream today.
00:29:44Someone with more talent in one note than you've shown in your entire career.
00:29:49Please, Mr. Files-
00:29:50That's not what it looks like!
00:29:52Explain what?
00:29:53How you took advantage of Mona's anxiety disorder?
00:29:57How you deleted the backing track so she'd break down on stage?
00:30:01You just tried to sabotage CR Entertainment's biggest project,
00:30:06just so you could destroy someone's dream.
00:30:08Security!
00:30:09No!
00:30:09No, no, no!
00:30:10Wait, wait!
00:30:10Your contract is terminated!
00:30:12And I hope you know that our legal team will make sure that you pay for every penny of the
00:30:17damage that you've caused!
00:30:23Hi, Mr. Files-
00:30:24The entire winter collection, please.
00:30:26Size 4.
00:30:26Of course, just this way.
00:30:28That's too much.
00:30:31Might I also suggest the crowning jewel of the winter collection?
00:30:38This color would really complement your hair.
00:30:41It's really beautiful.
00:30:52It's okay.
00:30:57What do you think?
00:30:59Perfect.
00:31:01Well, that looks wonderful.
00:31:03Should I wrap it?
00:31:05Oh, no, I should change.
00:31:07I wouldn't want your mother's first impression to be of a clumsy girl with wine stains.
00:31:11Need to make a proper entrance.
00:31:13Wear it now.
00:31:18I don't know what if she sees right through me and find us up.
00:31:23Yeah.
00:31:24Hold on to me.
00:31:26Follow my lead.
00:31:27You!
00:31:28You're that girl!
00:31:31You are Rafe's wife.
00:31:34The one who's been hiding from me.
00:31:36This is perfect.
00:31:38When you helped me that morning, I thought, this is the kind of daughter-in-law I have been praying
00:31:43for.
00:31:45Why didn't you tell me you'd married someone so wonderful?
00:31:48Surprise.
00:31:50Come on through.
00:31:51Okay.
00:31:52Yeah.
00:31:54I found this in a Christie's auction.
00:31:57Perfect for a musician.
00:32:05Oh, I couldn't pass away.
00:32:06Nonsense.
00:32:08You're family now.
00:32:09I want to hear all about how you two met.
00:32:14Can I please get some red wine for my husband?
00:32:18No wine.
00:32:18I don't drink.
00:32:21It's strange.
00:32:22A wife wouldn't know that her husband doesn't drink.
00:32:29No, I did.
00:32:30I did.
00:32:31But I just, I forgot.
00:32:32I'm so sorry.
00:32:33I guess you're worried too much about me.
00:32:34Oh, he's trying to get me to live at all.
00:32:36Yeah.
00:32:38I'm so sorry.
00:32:43I'm so sorry.
00:32:46I have a severe shellfish allergy.
00:32:49So, yeah.
00:32:51That's odd.
00:32:52You two have dined together before?
00:32:55No.
00:32:55No.
00:32:55You're absolutely certain you're married.
00:33:02Yes.
00:33:04We're married.
00:33:05Um, we just have been so busy with, um, uh, him, you know, with the company and me with music.
00:33:12And we just sometimes can't even find time to breathe.
00:33:17Young love always rushing around.
00:33:20Yeah.
00:33:21Yes.
00:33:22Ma'am.
00:33:24Oh, sorry.
00:33:29I'm sorry.
00:33:31Um, I have to take this.
00:33:33I'm so sorry.
00:33:33I'm sorry.
00:33:34It might be my audition.
00:33:36Excuse me.
00:33:37I'm sorry.
00:33:38Come on, come on.
00:33:47Am I speaking to Mona Corbett?
00:33:51James Chen here about the divorce proceedings your husband initiated.
00:33:58Your husband would like to move forward with separating from you, his wife Mona.
00:34:04We'll need to discuss.
00:34:07I'm sorry.
00:34:08I'm sorry.
00:34:08I'm in the middle of something really important.
00:34:10Is there any way we could discuss this at a later time?
00:34:12Of course.
00:34:13We'll be in touch.
00:34:14Thank you very much.
00:34:14Okay.
00:34:28Mr. Fastball, your wife wants to reschedule the divorce discussion.
00:34:32What?
00:34:34No more delays.
00:34:36I'll handle this myself.
00:34:42Hello?
00:34:43Hi.
00:34:44This is your husband.
00:34:46Let me be clear.
00:34:47I want the divorce finalized.
00:34:49No more games.
00:34:51Excuse me.
00:34:52I'm not the one that's playing games.
00:34:54Don't pretend that you're innocent.
00:34:56You know what you did.
00:34:58What I did?
00:34:59You don't even know me.
00:35:00Friday, 5pm.
00:35:02Be there to sign the papers.
00:35:04What is your...
00:35:17What happened to my lovebirds?
00:35:20You both look like storm clouds.
00:35:24Everything's fine.
00:35:25Perfect.
00:35:28I knew a lot of men.
00:35:31Powerful men.
00:35:31In the music industry.
00:35:34And your son is very different.
00:35:36When everyone was attacking me, he didn't throw his weight around.
00:35:42He just...
00:35:44He stood up for what was right.
00:35:49Few women would have stood such pressure.
00:35:52Most people in Mona's situation would have become bitter.
00:35:56Angry.
00:35:57Not Mona.
00:35:59She transforms tragedy into music.
00:36:03Makes...
00:36:05Beauty...
00:36:05From pain.
00:36:08The way you two look at each other, I can hardly bear it.
00:36:12Better than those vertical dramas I'm addicted to.
00:36:19If you need someone to hold on to.
00:36:26Harvey.
00:36:28Hold on.
00:36:28Don't touch that.
00:36:30On.
00:36:31And look what you've done for my flaws.
00:36:33This is what happens when you let anybody in.
00:36:36I'm sorry, I just wanna...
00:36:37Security.
00:36:38Check their bags.
00:36:40What?
00:36:41These kinds of people usually work in pairs.
00:36:43What?
00:36:43Can I check your bag please?
00:36:45Who is your partner?
00:36:46Hiding so you can grab and run?
00:36:47I have devoted my entire life to music.
00:36:50I would respect any instrument.
00:36:52Devoted your life to music?
00:36:53What?
00:36:54Playing between the garbage bins?
00:36:55You probably haven't washed your hands since your last performance.
00:36:59This guitar has been played by Grammy winners in festival performance.
00:37:03They wouldn't even trust the likes of you to clean their dressing rooms.
00:37:09What's in the bag?
00:37:10Stolen goods?
00:37:11Yes.
00:37:12Or just a cardboard sign that says we'll play for food?
00:37:16You couldn't make enough money in five years of panhandling to pay for this guitar.
00:37:20Although I guess it does depend how pathetic you look while you're begging.
00:37:24The only pathetic sight here is you.
00:37:29Who do you think you are?
00:37:30Get your manager.
00:37:32Unless you prefer I buy this store just to find you.
00:37:35Securacy, remove these two.
00:37:37Mr. Fastfold.
00:37:39I...
00:37:39I had no idea you were coming.
00:37:41Clearly.
00:37:42Please, sir.
00:37:44Last year alone, CR Entertainment bought three million dollars worth of equipment for...
00:37:50Perhaps your staff prefer not to deal with such common transactions.
00:37:57I'll handle this immediately.
00:37:58No, no, it's fine.
00:38:00I'll deal with this myself.
00:38:02You enjoy judging musicians?
00:38:04Let's discuss your qualifications.
00:38:06What conservatory did you attend?
00:38:08How many original compositions have you published?
00:38:13Nothing?
00:38:14Then you're just a shopkeeper who's got a bit too big for her boots.
00:38:20You just humiliated someone under my protection.
00:38:23She's with Mr. Fastfold.
00:38:25She is our V, V, I...
00:38:27Look at her.
00:38:28She could have damaged it.
00:38:29These street performers are always just...
00:38:31Shall we see what street performers can do?
00:38:38Show them what music really means, Nona.
00:38:50Show them what music really means, Nona.
00:38:58If it all falls within this pause, I will still breathe.
00:39:08It's a force I can ignore.
00:39:15She must be famous, right?
00:39:18She must be famous, right?
00:39:18What's her name?
00:39:19She must be famous, right?
00:39:19She must be famous.
00:39:20This is my redemption date.
00:39:27For all of my loss, my faith will give.
00:39:43A part of me fell out of place.
00:39:51A part of me fell out of place.
00:39:52He never was lost.
00:39:54But I've found my faith.
00:40:03I've been missing you.
00:40:20A part of me fell out of place.
00:40:25I'm missing you.
00:40:27I love you.
00:40:31such a masterful talent such emotion good deal such an expensive guitar anyone could sound good
00:40:38probably the first time she's picked up anything that isn't a cheap knockoff
00:40:43yeah you're right this is the first time i've played something so magnificent that's a beautiful
00:40:50thing though about music isn't it doesn't matter if it's a priceless guitar when you pick up from
00:40:54a pawn shop every instrument has this soul and a story you know i think that the real tragedy
00:41:00actually isn't standing on streets and performing i think it's standing in a shop surrounded by
00:41:04beautiful instruments and never knowing their purpose why is she still employed here
00:41:11you're right clear out your desk immediately see our entertainment will be taking our business
00:41:16elsewhere and i'll make sure every major recording studio in the city knows why
00:41:23oh and this guitar i'm taking it not for your store obviously but for this street musician

00:41:36you don't have to do that i i mean i appreciate everything you've done but let me save up for
00:41:41it
00:41:41think of it as an investment how would you earn money performing without your instrument

00:41:57uh this is my start
00:42:03yes

00:56:19This song, these chords and these lyrics
00:56:23It's my heart
00:56:24And I think for a music competition that celebrates
00:56:28Original music
00:56:31The truth matters
00:56:33Liar
00:56:34You worthless, jealous little snake
00:56:41She, this little snake
00:56:45Is trying to destroy my daughter's music career
00:56:49You are nothing but a street rat
00:56:53Who, who cannot stand
00:56:56Seeing her sister
00:56:58Succeed
00:57:00Everything I said is true
00:57:03Oh, but you are a complete liar
00:57:07And I can prove exactly who's lying
00:57:14Let me tell you all a little story about our talented friend here
00:57:18She is not Mrs. Fassfeldt
00:57:22She is nothing but a street performer who got lucky
00:57:26I heard her confess it myself
00:57:28This whole marriage is a lie
00:57:30Cucked up to fool Madam Pam
00:57:33A fraud
00:57:34We cleared our schedule for this
00:57:36I canceled a meeting in Shanghai
00:57:38Oh, thank you darling for that little bit of information
00:57:41Thank you
00:57:43You are just a little con artist
00:57:47Who used the title of Rafe Fassfeld's wife
00:57:52To, to trick the entire music
00:57:54I tried to tell you so many times
00:57:56Oh, just shut up
00:57:58Shut up
00:57:59You have ruined everything
00:58:02Our reputation
00:58:03Our connections
00:58:04I think
00:58:29I'll teach you to humiliate us
00:58:33What are you doing?
00:58:34Get out of the way
00:58:35Mia
00:58:37Everything I've done
00:58:38All of my connections are for you
00:58:42For your future
00:58:43My future?
00:58:45Twisted expectations
00:58:47I hate singing
00:58:50I've always hated it
00:58:52But never once did you ask me what I wanted
00:58:55Don't be ridiculous
00:58:56You are a star
00:58:57I'm your puppet
00:59:00You used Mona's song to make me shine
00:59:03You stole her music
00:59:04You stole her music
00:59:04Her dreams
00:59:06So you could live some twisted fantasy through me
00:59:10How dare you
00:59:11After everything I sacrificed for you
00:59:15Sacrificed?
00:59:16You sacrificed nothing but your humanity
00:59:19Mona
00:59:20I'm so sorry, Mona
00:59:21I didn't know it was your song
00:59:23I would never hurt you
00:59:25I would never hurt you that way
00:59:26I made a mistake
00:59:27I was too afraid to stand up to her
00:59:30And I let her turn me into a thief
00:59:32Can you forgive me?
00:59:34Christ
00:59:35You
00:59:38Ungrateful
00:59:39Child
00:59:40You have let
00:59:42This
00:59:43Street rat
00:59:44Poison
00:59:45Your mind
00:59:46And you
00:59:48You have destroyed everything
00:59:50I have built
00:59:51First
00:59:51You trick me
00:59:53With Ray Fastfold's name
00:59:54And then you turn my own
00:59:56Daughter
00:59:56Against me
00:59:57She torments her stepdaughter
00:59:59And belips her own child
01:00:00I wonder the poor girls
01:00:02Who were bending?
01:00:03Shut up
01:00:04All of you
01:00:05I just want to destroy
01:00:06That little face
01:00:07That
01:00:11Lisa
01:00:18Touch her again
01:00:19And I swear
01:00:20I'll be the last thing
01:00:21You ever do
01:00:25Let me see your hands
01:00:30Every time I turn around
01:00:31Someone's trying to hurt you
01:00:32Oh please
01:00:34Spare us the act
01:00:35We all know the truth now
01:00:37She is not your wife
01:00:39She is nothing
01:00:40You're right
01:00:43She's not my wife
01:00:46That's only because
01:00:47She hasn't said yes yet
01:00:50I've been falling in love with her
01:00:52Ever since the first note
01:00:54She played at that record store
01:00:58And I won't
01:00:59Let anyone harm
01:01:01The woman I love
01:01:05We had no idea
01:01:07She was being in the streets
