Transcript
00:00:16My name is Casey Reed. No one knows I'm the heiress of Reed Records, the billion-dollar music empire, or
00:00:24that I'm Echo,
00:00:25the anonymous producer who swept the Grammys. I chose to stay invisible because I fell for the one man I
00:00:32shouldn't have, Dexter Hayes, the rock star I secretly built from the ground up.
00:00:38I'm his assistant, his lover, and his ghostwriter. We 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, Kaze. How you make me feel. You are my favorite song.
00:01:19I lose control. My little man.
00:01:26I want you, Dex. I need you.
00:01:30Come here.
00:01:33Dex.
00:01:35And because you're already mine, I'm gonna call you on that stage tonight.
00:01:42I'm gonna sing the song that I wrote to you.
00:01:44And I'm gonna kiss you in front of everybody.
00:01:47I'm gonna claim every inch of you.
00:01:50Note by note.
00:01:51In front of the whole world.
00:02:08Hey, Kaze, um, what's with all the secret phone calls? Just, 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 Kaze.
00:02:34You are gonna be my lucky charm tonight, like always.
00:02:49When the user uses his hair a try, he can relax.
00:02:50I can wait for the next race.
00:03:00I have nothing at all in this fight.
00:03:09I'll get nothing at all in this fight.
00:03:11I'll go I to my place.
00:03:12Stop with me!
00:03:13I'll get nothing to help me.
00:03:14Ow!
00:03:14I'll get nothing to do!
00:03:23And now, for the star of our show, the world's hottest pop star, and my soulmate, Dexter
00:03:32Hayes!
00:03:36Wait for me, right here?
00:03:41Dexter Hayes is my ticket to the top of the charts, but I'll never lock him down as long
00:03:46as 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, she'll finally take the hint.
00:04:12I've got a really special one for y'all tonight.
00:04:14Hope you enjoy.
00:04:16Dexter Hayes!
00:04:16Let's go!
00:04:18Let's go!
00:04:19Let's go!
00:04:20Let's go!
00:04:22Let's go!
00:04:24Shit!
00:04:26The backing mix is corrupted.
00:04:28I can't let Dex's show get ruined.
00:04:30Echo can fix this.
00:04:35Are you here?
00:04:36I need your help.
00:04:38What the hell is she up to?
00:04:43Well, I guess the system couldn't handle all of our energy and good vibes, so...
00:04:49I'll be right back.
00:04:53There, your gear from the studio.
00:04:57Or should I say Echo's gear?
00:04:58Dad!
00:04:59We've talked about this.
00:05:01In public, I am not your daughter and I'm not Echo.
00:05:03But 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.
00:05:12But for now, I have a tractor remix.
00:05:15Oh, that's my girl.
00:05:19When Dexter sees this, he'll dump that little cheater and run straight into my arms.
00:05:42Oh my god, these are the arrangements of all of Dexter's hit songs.
00:05:46Is Casey... Echo?
00:05:56Time to save Dex's concert.
00:05:59Play the song!
00:06:00Play the song!
00:06:01God, where's Casey?
00:06:03She said she'd stay right here.
00:06:04Play the song!
00:06:05The 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 novel.
00:06:25Are you her?
00:06:26Are you her?
00:06:28Are you her?
00:06:31Listen, can you please save this song?
00:06:34I already did.
00:06:38Wait.
00:06:40Dexter, there's one 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, and we're back.
00:07:20Well, I, uh, I wrote this song for the love of my life.
00:07:25At least I thought so.
00:07:35Get ready, Dex.
00:07:36The mix to your next big single is coming to you in three, two, one.
00:07:44I'm a man as I am.
00:07:51I'm a man as I am.
00:07:52I'm a man as I am.
00:08:12The time I looked into your eye.
00:08:15The secret feeling again.
00:08:17I know I was running out of time.
00:08:26To be continued again.
00:08:28Yeah.
00:08:54Oh, my God.
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.
00:09:36I loved her, and she betrayed me.
00:09:51Oh, my God.
00:09:52Dexie!
00:09:53Oh, my God.
00:09:54Is 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.
00:10:14No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet.
00:10:18But she made my career, and Casey betrayed me.
00:10:25It was all a lie.
00:10:28All right.
00:10:29I can play along with his engagement, and I can move on from the woman who broke my heart.
00:10:42Hey, uh, Casey.
00:10:54You promised me that you'd tell the world about us tonight, but instead you propose and put a ring on
00:11:04Scarlet 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.
00:11:19Okay?
00:11:20I owe her.
00:11:21All right?
00:11:21I don't...
00:11:22You owe her?
00:11:24Scarlet Heart is just some talentless industry plan.
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, okay?
00:11:35So, so, so that's why.
00:11:37What 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.
00:12:02How could you believe her lies?
00:12:05Come 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?
00:12:20To boost your sales?
00:12:22He could have had that with me.
00:12:24This is all you ever really cared about.
00:12:28Isn't it?
00:12:31Not loyalty.
00:12:33Just...
00:12:34Your music.
00:12:36What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:41This...
00:12:42Is my notebook.
00:12:44Full of songs that I wrote
00:12:46For Dexter's first little platinum album.
00:12:48That's my notebook.
00:12:50How did Scarlet get her hands on it?
00:12:52I'm a musical genius.
00:12:54And you're just...
00:12:56Dexter's little errand girl.
00:12:58Give it back.
00:12:59Dexter, she cut me!
00:13:02See what?
00:13:03She's gotten into you.
00:13:04I don't...
00:13:04I 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.
00:13:22Scarlet is not Echo.
00:13:24Then tell me why I shouldn't.
00:13:26Okay?
00:13:26Why shouldn't I believe her?
00:13:31Go wait in the car.
00:13:32Please.
00:13:38But Casey...
00:13:43Look, I know that you've been hiding things.
00:13:45So, please just...
00:13:47Just tell me the truth.
00:13:48Okay, right now.
00:13:50Or we'll lose us forever.
00:13:54Please.
00:13:58Please.
00:14:07The truth doesn't matter anymore.
00:14:09You don't trust me anyway.
00:14:16We're over.
00:14:19Dex.
00:14:22Goodbye.
00:14:23Forever.
00:14:26Forever.
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.
00:14:58Dad.
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.
00:15:08What happened, princess?
00:15:10Scarlet Hart.
00:15:12She stole him, and now she's trying to steal my identity.
00:15:16I'll come get you.
00:15:19What happened?
00:15:21Casey.
00:15:22Casey, where are you?
00:15:32Looks like Dexter's whore is awake.
00:15:35Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man.
00:15:40Who are you?
00:15:41Let me go.
00:15:43Don't worry, Scarlet.
00:15:44We won't hurt you.
00:15:46We're your friends, too.
00:15:48We've only shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Hart.
00:15:51We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson.
00:15:55We saw you kissing Dexter backstage.
00:15:58You're trying to steal him from his soulmate.
00:16:02I wasn't stealing him.
00:16:04We were in love.
00:16:06Or I thought we were.
00:16:09We'll see about that, won't we?
00:16:11The only way you'll live tonight
00:16:14is if Dexter chooses to save you.
00:16:21Who the hell is everybody?
00:16:26Dressing room, come alone.
00:16:28Choose to save Scarlet Hart, and we'll spare them.
00:16:32Choose your little assistant, and they both die.
00:16:37You've reached Casey.
00:16:38I can't come to the phone right now.
00:16:40Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:44Casey?
00:16:45So she never left a concert.
00:16:47Get back to the concert hall now.
00:16:50Dexter is coming.
00:16:52We'll see who his true love is.
00:16:55You psychos!
00:16:57Are you hoping that he chooses you over his fiancée?
00:17:02Obviously not.
00:17:04She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry.
00:17:08You fucked him, too?
00:17:10God, our precious Dexter.
00:17:13Soiled by a dirty star fucker.
00:17:16Girls like you don't deserve him.
00:17:19You don't deserve to live.
00:17:21No one knows what the real Echo looks like.
00:17:23So, if Casey dies,
00:17:26then the truth dies with her.
00:17:28That's not true!
00:17:30First you steal my identity,
00:17:32now you're trying to get me murdered?
00:17:34You're psychotic!
00:17:35Oh, don't worry, Casey.
00:17:37If you die today,
00:17:38Dex and I will make a song about you,
00:17:39and maybe it'll even be the lead single on our new album.
00:17:44You're crazier than they are.
00:17:45Who are you calling crazy?
00:17:52Casey!
00:17:52Dexter!
00:17:58Dexter!
00:18:00Dexter!
00:18:01Dexter!

00:18:03Dexter!
00:18:04Dexter, help me!
00:18:05They hit me,
00:18:05and then they tied me up,
00:18:07and now they're trying to kill me!
00:18:10Okay, guys, let's...
00:18:12Let's just put the guns down, okay?
00:18:14We...
00:18:15We can't do that, Dexter!
00:18:17We're your biggest fans!
00:18:19We're doing this for you!
00:18:21Okay, well, if you love me,
00:18:23all right,
00:18:24you'll put the gun down,
00:18:25and then let these two go, please.
00:18:27No, that's not how this works!
00:18:29Dexie!
00:18:30You would be nothing without Echo!
00:18:33We're engaged now!
00:18:34You can't let me die!
00:18:36Dex,

00:18:38all the memories,
00:18:40all the I love yous you told me,
00:18:42did they mean anything?
00:18:44You must choose one to live!
00:18:46Will it be your future wife?
00:18:49Or your mistress?
00:18:51Who really holds the key to your heart,
00:18:54Dexter Hayes?
00:18:55They said if I don't choose Scarlet,
00:18:57then they both die.
00:18:59I can save Casey,
00:19:00but I...
00:19:00I have to break her heart.
00:19:03Which one really holds the key to your heart,
00:19:06Dexter Hayes?
00:19:11You never really loved me,
00:19:13did you?
00:19:15And you loved him?
00:19:17You leeched off him
00:19:18for half a decade.
00:19:20If that's what you really think, Dex,
00:19:22go ahead,
00:19:23make your choice.
00:19:24Choose now,

00:19:34That's enough.

00:19:39two,
00:19:40one.
00:19:41Okay, okay, okay.
00:19:42I can't risk them killing Casey.
00:19:45Scarlet,
00:19:46alright?
00:19:46I choose Scarlet.
00:19:52Dexter,
00:19:53I'm gonna faint!
00:19:54I was so scared.
00:19:56He chose Scarlet?
00:19:58Good choice.
00:19:59Cheating whores deserve to die.
00:20:01Now, wait a minute,
00:20:02you told me that...
00:20:03You made your choice,
00:20:05Dexter Hayes.

00:21:00And for the record,
00:21:01I never needed your money!
00:21:03I was right to walk away.
00:21:05Staying with you
00:21:06was the biggest mistake
00:21:07I've ever made.
00:21:09Look, Casey,
00:21:10you don't understand, alright?
00:21:11They were gonna make me...
00:21:12I'm done
00:21:14living in your shadow decks.
00:21:17Goodbye.
00:21:22Casey, Casey.
00:21:24Hey.
00:21:25Hey.
00:21:26Hey.
00:21:26Hey.
00:21:27Hey.
00:21:29Hey.
00:21:29Hey.
00:21:29Hey.
00:21:29Hey.
00:21:31Casey.
00:21:33Casey, stop.
00:21:34Please, stop.
00:21:35Please, please.
00:21:36We're gonna go...
00:21:37Okay, what are you gonna do
00:21:37without all this?
00:21:39You should be asking yourself
00:21:40that same question.
00:21:42Good luck staying at the top
00:21:43of the charts once I'm gone.
00:21:45You're delusional.
00:21:46He doesn't need you.
00:21:47He has Echo.
00:21:49Yeah.
00:21:50Sure he does.
00:21:52Fame really has changed you,
00:21:55Dexter Hayes.
00:21:58Fame changed me?
00:22:00Okay.
00:22:02And what about you?
00:22:03You're the one that's been
00:22:04sneaking around behind my back
00:22:06this whole time.
00:22:08I never betrayed you
00:22:10how you betrayed me
00:22:11by putting that ring
00:22:12on Scarlet's finger.
00:22:14You chose her
00:22:15and you left me for dead.
00:22:17No.
00:22:18Casey, you don't understand.
00:22:19I was trying to...
00:22:44Oh, my God.
00:22:45That's Ed Reed,
00:22:47the CEO of Reed Records.
00:22:50So sorry it didn't come sooner,
00:22:52baby girl.
00:22:55You're here now.
00:22:57Takes me home.
00:23:10Oh, my God.
00:23:13Oh, my God.
00:23:14Oh, my God.
00:23:15Oh, my God.
00:23:15You have everything you want.
00:23:17You have everything you want.
00:23:18I was trying to...
00:23:20Oh, my God.
00:23:27You have everything you want.
00:23:29You have everything you want.
00:23:31Casey!
00:23:32Casey!
00:23:34Let me explain!
00:23:38Scarlet.
00:23:39Mrs. Hayes.
00:23:40You should have seen it.
00:23:42I almost died.
00:23:43And that desperate skank
00:23:45cheated on Dexter
00:23:46with some sugar daddy.
00:23:47I always knew
00:23:49she was a gold digger.
00:23:50She tried to trap Dexter first.
00:23:53Then when that failed,
00:23:54she went after the CEO
00:23:55of the biggest music label
00:23:57in the world.
00:23:58Dexter,
00:23:59she never cared about you.
00:24:01She's been lying to you
00:24:02this entire time.
00:24:03All she ever cared about
00:24:04was money and power.
00:24:06I thought Casey loved me.
00:24:08But the whole time,
00:24:09she was in bed
00:24:10with the CEO
00:24:11of Reed Records.
00:24:12No.
00:24:17Forget him, princess.
00:24:19Hmm?
00:24:20You are much too talented
00:24:22to be running
00:24:22some rock star's errands.
00:24:24How could I be so blind?
00:24:29Three days from now,
00:24:30at the annual
00:24:31Music Hall of Fame Gala,
00:24:33announcing you
00:24:33as the new CEO
00:24:35of Reed Records
00:24:36and my daughter,
00:24:38the heiress to my empire.
00:24:40It's time to show the world
00:24:41who you really are.
00:24:51My back is pressed.
00:24:59My back is pressed.
00:25:07No, no.
00:25:09Okay.
00:25:10Guys,
00:25:11cut the track.
00:25:14The damn thing
00:25:15is in the wrong key.
00:25:17Look, guys,
00:25:18we have one week,
00:25:20all right,
00:25:21to finish this song
00:25:22before the release.
00:25:23The Echo that I know
00:25:24can put together
00:25:25a perfect studio mix
00:25:26in hours.
00:25:28You can't even fix
00:25:29a simple beat
00:25:29or a key?
00:25:31What's going on?
00:25:33Look, Scarlett,
00:25:34I just gotta ask.
00:25:35Are you
00:25:36really
00:25:37Echo?
00:25:41Are you
00:25:42really
00:25:43Echo?
00:25:45Dexy,
00:25:47of course
00:25:48I am.
00:25:50It's just
00:25:51your new assistant.
00:25:53He's been messing,
00:25:54he's messing
00:25:54with my tracks.
00:25:55He's obviously
00:25:56trying to sabotage
00:25:57our new album.
00:25:58I mean, look.
00:26:01Last saved
00:26:02by Max.
00:26:03Yeah,
00:26:04that's because
00:26:04you don't know
00:26:05how to...
00:26:05Okay,
00:26:05you know what?
00:26:06Echo would never
00:26:07put her name
00:26:07on garbage like this.
00:26:11Mr. Hayes,
00:26:12please,
00:26:12listen,
00:26:13it's...
00:26:13It's Dexter.
00:26:14And I'm sorry,
00:26:15but my last assistant
00:26:17would have never
00:26:18screwed me over
00:26:19like that.
00:26:20You're fired.
00:26:27See it again.
00:26:43Good luck
00:26:44staying at the top
00:26:45of the charts
00:26:45once I'm gone.
00:26:47Writing love songs
00:26:48used to be so easy
00:26:49with Casey here.
00:27:03We're sorry.
00:27:04You have reached
00:27:05a number that has
00:27:06been disconnected
00:27:06or is no longer
00:27:07in service.
00:27:09Alright,
00:27:10she broke my heart
00:27:11and she moved on.
00:27:13So,
00:27:13why can't I do
00:27:15the same?
00:27:16Why can't I do the same?
00:27:32Look what we just got.
00:27:34An invitation
00:27:35to the biggest
00:27:36industry event
00:27:37of the year.
00:27:38The Reed Records
00:27:39Music Hall of Fame
00:27:40Gala.
00:27:47Look,
00:27:48I'm not interested.
00:27:49Okay,
00:27:49we have a song
00:27:50to finish.
00:27:51Dexter.
00:27:52You said it yourself.
00:27:53They can lay down
00:27:54a track in hours.
00:27:55We have to go.
00:27:56This is a personal
00:27:57invitation
00:27:58from Mr. Ed Reed
00:27:59himself.
00:28:01Okay,
00:28:02look.
00:28:04I know
00:28:05what you're thinking
00:28:05but Casey
00:28:06probably meant
00:28:07nothing to him.
00:28:08He's a billionaire
00:28:09record executive.
00:28:10I'm sure
00:28:11he has a whole
00:28:11roster of
00:28:12scorned assistants
00:28:12lining up
00:28:13to get on their
00:28:13knees and work
00:28:14for a few extra bucks.
00:28:15You have to go
00:28:17and you have
00:28:17to impress him,
00:28:18okay?
00:28:18He could make
00:28:19or break our careers.
00:28:22Okay,
00:28:23I guess you're right.
00:28:24Of course I am.
00:28:26We
00:28:27are the

00:28:32little assistant
00:28:33of yours
00:28:33and start
00:28:34getting ready.

00:31:31Scarlet,
00:31:32what a
00:31:33terrible
00:31:33surprise.
00:31:34I should
00:31:35have known
00:31:35you'd sneak
00:31:35in here hunting
00:31:36for your next
00:31:37sugar daddy,
00:31:38but this
00:31:38party is for
00:31:39the elite
00:31:39of the music
00:31:40industry only.
00:31:41I suggest
00:31:41you wait
00:31:42on the street
00:31:42corner with

00:31:51Why?
00:31:52So you
00:31:53can seduce
00:31:53the new
00:31:54CEO of
00:31:55Reed Records
00:31:55too?
00:31:56I hear he's
00:31:57much more
00:31:58selective than
00:31:59Ed Reed,
00:31:59so don't expect
00:32:00him to look
00:32:00at you twice.
00:32:01And don't
00:32:02distract Dexter
00:32:03tonight.
00:32:03Leave,

00:32:15feelings don't
00:32:16just go
00:32:16away.
00:32:17How could
00:32:17she change
00:32:18his mind
00:32:18so easily?
00:32:21You can
00:32:22dress up
00:32:22all you
00:32:23want,
00:32:24but you
00:32:25will always

00:32:28lowly,
00:32:28little,
00:32:29errant

00:32:31someone
00:32:31important.
00:32:32She's just
00:32:32a desperate
00:32:33assistant
00:32:34playing

00:32:38heart.

00:35:01the last few
00:35:02days,
00:35:02and,
00:35:02well,

00:35:08wanting to
00:35:09pick up
00:35:09the phone,
00:35:10for wanting
00:35:11to hear
00:35:11his voice
00:35:11again.
00:35:12But after
00:35:13what he
00:35:13did to
00:35:13me,
00:35:14I couldn't
00:35:15give him
00:35:15the satisfaction.

00:43:24I'm still missing you
00:43:42I thought I was clear our relationship is over, Mr. Hayes.
00:43:46You're no longer welcome at Reed 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.
00:44:14What'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.
00:44:47Don't act like you've forgotten what we had.
00:44:53I've been trying to, but being this close again, it feels impossible.
00:44:59You're a lot like an instrument, but you tremble every time we touch.
00:45:10I don't care about the fans, I don't give a shit about the tabloids, I don't care what
00:45:14the record labels have to say.
00:45:15If you tell me that you want to be with me, we'll be together.
00:45:25We can tease each other all day.
00:45:28Until you finally admit that you still love me.
00:45:57You're right, I am like an instrument, the way I let you play me.
00:46:02After what you did, why would I trust you ever again?
00:46:05Listen to me.
00:46:07I've been trying to tell you, I do not want to be with Scarlett.
00:46:11Hello?
00:46:12Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way.
00:46:15Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on.
00:46:16Sasha Silver?
00:46:17I've been telling you for months, the guy's a douchebag.
00:46:21A douchebag with over a hundred million strings?
00:46:25I mean, we have a Dexter Hayes-sized hole to fill, and 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.
00:46:39Casey!
00:46:42Casey has every right to be angry with me after what I did.
00:46:46I 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, but 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.
00:47:22Well, I heard you'd 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.
00:47:36But 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?
00:48:01I do love straight vodka.
00:48:08But you know what I actually love even more than that?
00:48:15What'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?
00:48:40Absolutely.
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 label to sign me.
00:48:52Not when I can read records for myself.
00:48:57Don't be shy, Casey.
00:48:58I'm just hoping you get ready.
00:48:59The paparazzi will be here any minute to see my new mistress.
00:49:02He'll plaster our photos all over the tabloids.
00:49:05Everyone will see what a slut you are.
00:49:07How you slept your way to the top.
00:49:10Your poor father.
00:49:12He's gonna have no choice but to hand you and your company over to me.
00:49:16You're delusional.
00:49:18Stay away from me.
00:49:19I'm fine.
00:49:20You don't tell Sasha.
00:49:21Hey!
00:49:23Break your fucking hands off.
00:49:26I'll break your fucking hands.
00:49:28Dexter Hayes.
00:49:30Huh?
00:49:30Are you okay?
00:49:32I'm fine.
00:49:36What the fuck, Hayes?
00:49:38I could sue you for that.
00:49:40I'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 kinda wanted to defend this used-up slut.
00:50:00I mean, what the fuck?
00:50:03The name is K.C. Wynn, and 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.
00:50:24Let's go.
00:50:28Give me your hand.
00:50:36K.C., I've been telling you for months, Sasha 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?
00:50:45Do you have any idea what he could have done to you?
00:50:47He could have raped you.
00:50:48Yes!
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 the minute that you stop making stupid fucking decisions.
00:51:16And when I've made up for all the danger I put her in.
00:51:22You're way too interested in my personal life, Dex.
00:51:27Yes.
00:51:27Won't your fiancé be jealous?
00:51:34I've been trying to tell you for weeks, I did not want to marry Scarlet.
00:51:41But you don't fucking let her.
00:51:43Now you're really starting to piss me off.
00:51:45Isn't that the point?
00:51:57So, 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.
00:52:28Boss, I have news!
00:52:31Thank you for your help today, Dexter.
00:52:36Please, stop following me.
00:52:41Or else it's gonna get harder and harder to walk away.
00:52:54Great timing.
00:52:56As always.
00:52:57Why are you even here?
00:52:58I've done 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.
00:53:07Good.
00:53:09Buy all the rice to his music.
00:53:12I'm gonna give that to Casey as a gift.
00:53:19I heard what happened with Sasha.
00:53:21Now that was way too risky, Casey.
00:53:24Look, I'm far from Dexter's biggest fan, but that could've gotten real ugly if he hadn't shown up.
00:53:29I could've handled Sasha.
00:53:30There was also a huge leak in the press.
00:53:33All of Sasha Silver's dirty laundry out for everyone to see.
00:53:36He's been, uh, what do you kids call it?
00:53:38Cancelled.
00:53:39Who took him down?
00:53:41Dexter 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.
00:54:08The 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.
00:54:33She knows Dexter wouldn't look at her twice, let alone marry her, if she wasn't pretending to be a genius
00:54:39producer.
00:54:39I don't know how she thinks she's going to get away with it.
00:54:43I 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.
00:55:22With 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.
00:55:48You're the best, Dad.
00:55:49Mrs. Hayes! It's so good to see you again.
00:55:54How's Dexter?
00:55:55Engaged.
00:55:57Yes, 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.
00:56:05So 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.
00:56:31Ugh.
00:56:31It's you.
00:56:32Get 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.
00:56:43Now.
00:56:48I'm the CEO of 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.
00:56:59Hmm.
00:57:00Tell that to Scarlett.
00:57:02Excuse me?
00:57:04I am Dexter Hayes' fiancee and creative collaborator.
00:57:08And you don't really know anything about music.
00:57:11Yeah.
00:57:12You're right.
00:57:13In that case.
00:57:15You should have this.
00:57:23No!
00:57:24No!
00:57:28Oh my God!
00:57:35Oops.
00:57:35Slipped out of my hands.
00:57:37My bad.
00:57:40Are you insane?
00:57:42You 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.
00:57:56Do you think you set that up for me?
00:57:57Yes!
00:57:58Of course, Mr. Hayes!
00:57:59Okay.
00:58:02Just kidding.
00:58:04It's all yours now.
00:58:15Scarlett, ignore this wannabe musician.
00:58:18We'll find a better option.
00:58:21Mmm.
00:58:22Mmm.
00:58:26Like 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...
00:58:48My, my, my apologies, my apologies.
00:58:50Apologies, but...
00:58:51No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:58:52We 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 Scarlett from choking on the stage.
00:59:08How dare you, you little bitch!
00:59:17That's enough.
00:59:21Hi, Dexy.
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?
00:59:38Scarlett'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, 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?
01:00:21I'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 at all.
01:00:38But from someone who cares about you a lot, why the hell not?
01:00:42Dexter, are you insane?
01:00:45She's not even a real musician, and you gave her the entire store?
01:00:51You're gonna make us pay her for a guitar?
01:00:54Oh, it's okay.
01:00:56Scarlet could have it for free.
01:00:58As 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.
01:01:09I will talk to you about this later.
01:01:12Come here.
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.
01:01:28Hi.
01:01:29One, I'm not your assistant anymore.
01:01:32It's Miss Reed, and I'm the CEO of Reed Records.
01:01:36Two, my birthday was months ago.
01:01:39Actually, the night that you proposed to Scarlet, so your gift means nothing.
01:01:45Did you know I was actually gonna tell you my secret that night?
01:01:48What secret?
01:01:52Secret?
01:01:53What 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.
01:02:08But not anymore.
01:02:11I don't need you.
01:02:23Don't pay attention to anything she just said.
01:02:24I want you to get the best equipment and the best instruments to her collection.
01:02:28Yes, sir.
01:02:31Oh, and one more thing.
01:02:34She's fired.
01:02:36Yes, sir.
01:02:40But, Dexter, you can't do this. I love you!
01:02:55Mr. Hayes, Ms. Hart, you're on in five. The broadcast will begin live.
01:03:02Did you hear that? Millions 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. Let's go.
01:03:18No.
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. Her daddy probably got her a ticket after she cried about being left out.
01:03:45Dexter, 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 when you yourself have
01:03:56none.
01:03:57Mmm. I'm getting a lecture about talent from you.
01:04:02Guess we'll see who's real and who's fake tonight.
01:04:05Wreck-a-legs, 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. The track's gone completely white.
01:04:40You have another version of the track, right?
01:04:42Oh.
01:04:43Yeah.
01:04:44Oh, I'm sorry.
01:04:45I didn't even make that version.
01:04:47I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me on to her reject tracks.
01:04:51Go fix this. Now!
01:04:55This is bad, alright? Everyone's just out there staring at us.
01:04:58We're gonna burn the broadcast, and the label's gonna drop us.
01:05:01What are we gonna do?
01:05:03I have an idea.
01:05:06You're Echo, right?
01:05:18Yes, it's true. I'm Echo, the award-winning producer and Dexter Hayes' long-time mystery collaborator.
01:05:27Then prove it.
01:05:29Go ahead. Why don't you mix us a live track right here, right now?
01:05:33Come on, you're a genius producer, right? I 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. She'll must go on.
01:06:17Nice try. Scarlet's proven herself enough. You can stop with the jealous witch hunt now.
01:06:24Okay, can you boost the treble on the EQ in the middle? And can you pan from stage left to
01:06:29stage right real quick?
01:06:32Yeah.
01:06:39Damn, I guess you're gonna have to do it the old-fashioned way. That means recording the instruments live, looping
01:06:45the-
01:06:45Don't listen to her. She 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, why would Casey do that? For real, okay? You're Echo, okay? So just fix the track.
01:07:06Yeah. Come on, Echo. What, you have performance anxiety?
01:07:19Scarlet, you are our only hope now. You 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, but 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!
01:07:47Just your Echo, okay? Record some MIDI instruments, lay them down, make a track. It's that simple. You know how
01:07:53to do this.
01:07:55You really think your fiancé is going to be able to fix this show? I mean, if she goes down,
01:08:00you go down with her.
01:08:03Casey shouldn't even be here. I can't let her expose me. Not when I'm so close to marrying Dexter and
01:08:08becoming a pop legend.
01:08:32Is this part of her process? It would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music.
01:08:58Oh my god, is Scarlet Heart tone deaf?
01:09:01Come on Echo, show them your talent. Keep going.
01:09:04Get off the stage! You're ruining the UMAs!
01:09:11Alright, look. It's done.
01:09:15You're really going to give up that easily, Dex? You're going to throw it all away because of Scarlet?
01:09:20Yeah, I am. That whole career that I fought for for however, how many years? Yeah.
01:09:29Because you know what? Someone that I was close to once told me that there's a lot more to life
01:09:36than 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
01:09:42Read Records.
01:09:45Dexter! Stop it with those awful jokes! Your entire life's work is on the line!
01:09:51Mom! You heard the track, okay? There's no saving this song. Now it's over. It'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 no other-
01:10:20Hey! It's time to let a real musician take the stage.
01:10:30What 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.
01:10:49And if you don't?
01:10:51Will you step down as Read Records CEO if you fail?
01:10:56Happily.
01:11:00Everyone, we're about to watch the Read 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.
01:11:30This is not a one-time thing.
01:11:35Lights are low, but I still glow.
01:11:39This morning's got a sting.
01:11:44Good.
01:11:44Good.
01:11:47Now let's make a hit.
01:11:55Let's fucking go!
01:12:13Wait, what is she doing?
01:12:16I mean, you produced this, right? So do you want to go ahead and take over?
01:12:19I-I-I can't, I don't have butt.
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 sounds, it's familiar.
01:12:37You are not the kind for a show.
01:12:42This is not a one-time thing.
01:12:45Stop! Stop it!
01:12:46It's not a one-time thing.
01:12:50You're not the only one.
01:12:51I mean, let's do it.
01:12:55Come on.
01:12:57He looks like you did a song thing.
01:13:00You're Echo.
01:13:02Does this mean Casey Reed is Echo?
01:13:06This is my song, she just ripped it off
01:13:08Who'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
01:13:18I 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
01:13:32She's the one that saved the song
01:13:34No, that was me
01:13:36I already did all the work, she'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
01:13:47But you're gonna 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
01:14:12I want a public apology
01:14:15From 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
01:14:24And then Scarlet could finish the album
01:14:26And Dexter's career could crash and burn
01:14:28So...
01:14:29What will it be?
01:14:35The clock is ticking
01:14:38I was wrong about you
01:14:40You saved Dexter's song
01:14:43I'm sorry
01:14:47And you?
01:14:48Do it
01:14:50Apologize to her
01:14:51That bitch!
01:14:52Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:14:55She ruined everything
01:14:56Come on, let's hear it
01:14:57Tell the world the truth
01:14:59Scarlet
01:15:00Fine!
01:15:01I'm not Echo
01:15:02I pretended
01:15:03And I never wrote or produced
01:15:05Any of Dexter's songs
01:15:06They are happy!
01:15:11I was wrong about you
01:15:12You 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
01:15:28Come on, let's hear it
01:15:30Tell the world the truth
01:15:31Scarlet
01:15:32Fine!
01:15:33I'm not Echo
01:15:35I pretended
01:15:36And I never wrote or produced
01:15:37Any of Dexter's songs
01:15:38They are happy!
01:15:42They are happy!
01:15:45Wait
01:15:45That's not what I really meant
01:15:48Dexter
01:15:50She manipulated me
01:15:51You're still my fiance
01:15:52You believe
01:15:53Scarlet, you are exactly
01:15:54What we all see
01:15:55You fucking brought
01:15:56And you're a damn liar
01:15:59Casey
01:16:00Is the one
01:16:01Who built my career
01:16:02Hell, she's the one
01:16:02Who saved the damn song
01:16:05She's the only one
01:16:06Who ever cared about me
01:16:08Or 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
01:16:39Terminating your contract
01:16:40And blacklisting you from the industry
01:16:42True is over
01:16:48You got yourself
01:16:50The old case
01:16:59Hit it
01:17:04If we're not here for long
01:17:08If we're not here for long
01:17:09Tell me where would we belong
01:17:14Who are you to tell me why?
01:17:16My back is fast
01:17:18Against the wall
01:17:20I need you to know
01:17:23I'm not afraid to fall
01:17:26Your name's on fire
01:17:30In my veins
01:17:33It's burning for my chains
01:17:38Who are you to tell me
01:17:40Who are you to tell me why?
01:17:43Who are you to tell me why?
01:17:45Who am I to live a lie?
01:17:48This mirror shows a thousand faces
01:17:52But none of them can blow
01:18:00Thatprechen I Rabbit
01:18:09Who are you to tell me?
01:18:24One, you are to tell me why is that
01:18:56I think everyone saw the broadcast and my work speaks for itself.
01:19:00You are a revolution in the music industry and we can't wait to see what you do next, Echo.
01:19:08You arrogant fucking whore! You ruined everything!
01:19:15Dexter was gonna be mine! I was gonna 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.
01:19:36Kirsten!
01:19:37Dex, no!
01:19:47Dex, no!
01:19:49Dex! 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.
01:20:13But have you stopped and asked yourself why he risked his own life to save you?
01:20:17It doesn't matter now.
01:20:19Things will never return back to how they were before.
01:20:23Casey, Dexter was an absolute idiot for betraying you, okay?
01:20:28Listen, 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.
01:20:39Well, 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, hmm?
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.
01:21:15Don'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.
01:21:40If Dex couldn't sing anymore, his life might as well be over.
01:21:45Hopefully, he'll recover.
01:21:48But 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.
01:23:02And, um, we can go our separate ways.
01:23:04We can end on a high note.
01:23:05No.
01:23:06Listen.
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.
01:23:43They 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.
01:23:55And I knew that I would lose you.
01:23:57And 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.
01:24:18You're my little muse.
01:24:23My pop star.
01:24:28Which reminds me...
01:24:32Reed Records would like to formally invite you to headline the Wildlight Festival.
01:24:39The Wildlight 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.
01:24:53You...
01:24:54You're my world, Casey.
01:24:57I 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.
01:25:23I 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.
01:25:50It's the biggest cry I've ever seen in my life.
01:25:55Then we better give them one hell of a show.
01:25:59Yes, ma'am.
01:26:09I 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.
01:26:22I love you too.
01:26:44Just let it go
01:26:47It would be time I
01:26:50Remember to smile like
01:26:52Imagine what we're together
01:27:07This goes on
01:27:11The stuff in the stockings
01:27:14But I am still walking
01:27:16But all we do
01:27:20Was the fool who I hated
01:27:23Now I'm recreated
01:27:25Every time I look at the moon
01:27:30From a dream of a night
01:27:32That's lost forever
01:27:36Soon you'll see
01:27:39That it's time for you and me
01:27:43Is the best so far
01:27:48With just a little
01:27:54Every time I look in your eyes
01:27:58I forget where I am
01:28:00Just a little
01:28:02Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:28:07I dream of a night
01:28:10That's lost forever
01:28:11Yeah, yeah
01:28:15I'm taking and talking
01:28:20But I will be walking
01:28:32Every time I remember to smile
01:28:36I imagine the world
01:28:38We're together
01:28:41I know
01:28:43I know
