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.
00:02:49I can't wait to make you my wife.
00:03:09I can't wait to make you my wife.
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.
00:07:42Yeah.
00:07:45I'm a man as I am.
00:07:51Yeah.
00:07:55Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
00:08:01oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
00:08:03oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
00:08:04oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:08:11The time I looked into your eye
00:08:14The secret feeling again
00:08:16I know I was running out of time
00:08:54I was running out of time
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
00:09:34To announce our relationship
00:09:36I loved her
00:09:38And she betrayed me
00:09:50Oh 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
00:10:13Trusted me
00:10:14No, I never wanted to propose to Scarlet
00:10:18But she made my career
00:10:20And Casey betrayed me
00:10:25It was all a lie
00:10:28All right
00:10:29I can play along with his engagement
00:10:31And I can move on from the woman who broke my heart
00:10:42Hey
00:10:43Hey
00:10:43Casey
00:10:45Casey
00:10:55You promised me
00:10:58That you'd tell the world about us tonight
00:11:00But instead
00:11:01But instead
00:11:01You propose
00:11:03And put a ring
00:11:04On Scarlet Heart's finger
00:11:07Casey
00:11:07You
00:11:08You gave me no choice
00:11:09I gave you everything
00:11:14I loved you
00:11:15Do you love her?
00:11:17I owe her
00:11:18Okay?
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 plant
00:11:28What has she ever done for you?
00:11:30Scarlet produced my career
00:11:31She made me who I am today
00:11:34Okay?
00:11:35So that's why
00:11:36What are you talking about?
00:11:40Scarlet is Echo
00:11:47You think Scarlet Heart is Echo?
00:11:52Well, I know she is
00:11:53You know what?
00:11:54I'll never be able to
00:11:55Thank her enough for
00:11:56Everything 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
00:12:05All you do is lie
00:12:09You know
00:12:09I don't even know who you are anymore
00:12:12Is this what you wanted all along?
00:12:14To be
00:12:15A music industry power couple?
00:12:18To please your adoring fans
00:12:20To boost your sales?
00:12:21He 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
00:12:32Just
00:12:34Your music
00:12:36What do you know about Dexter's music?
00:12:39Hmm?
00:12:41This is my notebook
00:12:43Full 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
00:12:55Dexter's little errand girl
00:12:58Give it back
00:12:59Ow!
00:12:59Dexter, she cut me
00:13:02See what has gotten into you?
00:13:04I don't
00:13:04I don't know who you are anymore
00:13:06Dexy, baby
00:13:08I know
00:13:09All about girls like her
00:13:11They want fame and money
00:13:13Without really ever having to work for it
00:13:14She's taking advantage of you
00:13:17She has been for years
00:13:19Dexter, you can't seriously
00:13:21Be 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
00:13:37But 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
00:13:58Please
00:13:59Please
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
00:14:43The hottest rock star
00:14:45On the planet
00:14:46Is officially off the market
00:14:47Dexter Hayes
00:14:49Popped the question
00:14:49To up and coming singer
00:14:51Scarlet Heart tonight
00:14:52And she said yes
00:14:58Dad
00:15:01I gave Dexter everything
00:15:02I made his career
00:15:04But
00:15:05He doesn't want me
00:15:06He never did
00:15:08What happened, Princess?
00:15:10Scarlet Heart
00:15:11She stole him
00:15:13And now she's trying to steal my identity
00:15:16I'll come get you
00:15:21I'll come get you
00:15:21Casey, where are you?
00:15:32It looks like Dexter's whore is awake
00:15:34Let's see how his future wife feels about you seducing her man
00:15:40Who are you?
00:15:41Let me go
00:15:42Don't worry, Scarlet
00:15:44We won't hurt you
00:15:45We're your friends too
00:15:47We've only shipped Dexter Hayes and Scarlet Heart
00:15:50We're just trying to teach this filthy skink a lesson
00:15:54We 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
00:16:08We'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
00:16:27Come alone
00:16:28Choose to save Scarlet Heart
00:16:30And we'll spare them
00:16:32Choose your little assistant
00:16:34And they both die
00:16:36You've reached Casey
00:16:38I can't come to the phone right now
00:16:40Where the hell is my daughter?
00:16:45Casey?
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
00:17:03She's just some nobody who slept with him to break into the industry
00:17:07You 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
00:17:18You don't deserve to live
00:17:20But no 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
00:17:33You're psychotic
00:17:35No, don't worry Casey
00:17:36If you die today
00:17:38Dex and I will make a song about you
00:17:39And maybe it'll even be the least 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
00:18:01Dexter
00:18:03Dexter
00:18:03Dexter
00:18:03Dexter, help me
00:18:04They hit me
00:18:05And then they tied me up
00:18:07And now they're trying to kill me
00:18:09Okay guys, let's
00:18:12Let's just put the guns down, okay?
00:18:14We can't do that Dexter
00:18:16We're your biggest fans
00:18:19We're doing this for you
00:18:20Okay, well if you love me
00:18:23Alright, you'll put the gun down
00:18:25And then let these two go
00:18:26Please
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
00:18:36All the love we ever had
00:18:38All the memories
00:18:39All the I love you's you told me
00:18:42Did they mean anything?
00:18:44You must choose one
00:18:45To live
00:18:46Will it be your future wife?
00:18:49Or your mistress?
00:18:52Who 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
00:18:58I 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
00:19:05Dexter Hayes?
00:19:11You never really loved me, did 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 or they both die
00:19:26Dexter
00:19:27Dexter, please
00:19:28Think of everything I've done for you
00:19:30You dumped her
00:19:32You chose me
00:19:33Don't let them murder me
00:19:34That's enough
00:19:36We're pulling the trigger in
00:19:37Three
00:19:39Two
00:19:40One
00:19:41Okay, okay, okay
00:19:42I can't risk them killing Casey
00:19:45Scarlet, alright?
00:19:46I choose Scarlet
00:19:52Dexter, I'm gonna faint
00:19:54He 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, Dexter Hayes
00:20:06Now you get to be the one
00:20:07Who saved your soulmate
00:20:09And we'll take care of your scandalous side piece
00:20:12No, no, no, no, no

00:20:20This is the end
00:20:26Goodbye, Dexter

00:21:01I never needed your money
00:21:02I 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

00:21:35We're gonna go
00:21:36Okay, what are you gonna do
00:21:37Without all this?
00:21:39You should be asking yourself
00:21:40That same question
00:21:41Good 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
00:21:51Fame really
00:21:53Has changed you
00:21:54Dexter Hayes
00:21:58Fame changed me
00:22:01Okay
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
00:22:09Betrayed 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
00:22:51It didn't come sooner
00:22:52Baby girl
00:22:55You're here now
00:22:56Take me home
00:23:12I'm trying to

00:23:16You have everything
00:23:17You have everything
00:23:18I was trying
00:23:19I was trying
00:23:20I was trying
00:23:20Casey Hayes
00:23:21If you want
00:23:27Casey
00:23:28Casey
00:23:29You have everything
00:23:30Casey
00:23:31Casey
00:23:33Casey
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
00:23:53And 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
00:24:05And power
00:24:05I 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
00:24:12Forget him princess
00:24:19Hmm
00:24:19You are much too talented
00:24:22To be running
00:24:22Some rockstar's errands
00:24:24How could I be so blind
00:24:29Three days from now
00:24:30At the annual music
00:24:31Hall of fame gala
00:24:32Announcing you
00:24:33As the new CEO
00:24:35Of Reed Records
00:24:36And my daughter
00:24:37The 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
00:25:07Nothing
00:25:09Okay
00:25:09Guys
00:25:10Cut the track
00:25:14The damn thing
00:25:15Is in the wrong key
00:25:17Look guys
00:25:18We have
00:25:19One week
00:25:20Alright
00:25:20To finish this song
00:25:22Before the release
00:25:22The echo that I know
00:25:24Can put together
00:25:25A perfect studio mix
00:25:26In hours
00:25:27You can't even fix
00:25:29A simple beat
00:25:29Or a key
00:25:30What's going on
00:25:32Look Scarlet
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
00:25:44Echo
00:25:45Dexy
00:25:47Of course
00:25:48I am
00:25:49It's just
00:25:51Your new assistant
00:25:52He'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
00:26:03That'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
00:26:10Mr. Hayes
00:26:12Please
00:26:12Listen
00:26:12It's dexter
00:26:14And I'm sorry
00:26:15But my last assistant
00:26:17Would have never
00:26:18Screamed me over like that
00:26:19You're fired
00:26:26See it again
00:26:43Good luck staying
00:26:44At the top of 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 a number
00:27:05That has been disconnected
00:27:06Or is no longer in service
00:27:09All right
00:27:10She broke my heart
00:27:11And she moved on
00:27:12So why can't I do the same
00:27:32Look what we just got
00:27:34An invitation
00:27:35To the biggest industry event
00:27:37Of the year

00:28:01Okay

00:28:05But Casey probably meant
00:28:07Nothing to him
00:28:08He's a billionaire record executive
00:28:10I'm sure he has a whole roster
00:28:11Of scorned assistants
00:28:12Lining up to get on their knees
00:28:14And work for a few extra bucks
00:28:15You have to go
00:28:17And you have to impress him
00:28:18Okay
00:28:18He could make
00:28:19Or break our careers
00:28:22Okay

00:28:23Of course I am
00:28:25We are the industry's

00:28:44Krusty skin

00:29:23Is introducing the whole world
00:29:25To his daughter
00:29:25The heiress
00:29:27To the Reed fortune
00:29:28Do you think she's gonna be
00:29:29The new CEO
00:29:29I don't know
00:29:30Who is this mysterious heiress
00:29:32She is Ed Reed's daughter
00:29:34I'll bet she'll be making
00:29:36A very splashy entrance
00:29:38Whoever she is
00:29:38We need to impress her
00:29:39Okay
00:29:40She could be our ticket
00:29:40To a number one album
00:29:41Look
00:29:42Here she is now
00:29:53No fucking way
00:29:55No fucking way
00:30:20Casey
00:30:24Casey
00:30:26Hey Dex
00:30:27Long time no see
00:30:31Dex has already
00:30:33Moved on with Scarlet
00:30:34I should be happy
00:30:35Walking away from him
00:30:37So
00:30:37Why does my heart
00:30:39Still ache
00:30:55Ignore her
00:30:57But instead
00:30:57Focus on kissing up to Ed Reed
00:30:59So he introduces us
00:31:00To the new CEO
00:31:02You should listen to her Dexter
00:31:04All we need to do
00:31:05Is get on their good side
00:31:06And our album
00:31:07Will go straight to number one
00:31:09She's right
00:31:10I have to impress Ed Reed
00:31:12And this new CEO
00:31:13If I want our album
00:31:14To be a hit
00:31:31Scarlet
00:31:32What a terrible surprise
00:31:34I should have known
00:31:35You'd sneak in here
00:31:36Hunting for your next sugar daddy
00:31:37But this party
00:31:38Is for the elite
00:31:39Of the music industry only
00:31:41I suggest you wait
00:31:42On the street corner
00:31:42With the other hookers
00:31:44But the party's
00:31:45Just getting started
00:31:46I can't miss
00:31:47The big announcement
00:31:51Why?
00:31:53So you can seduce
00:31:53The new CEO
00:31:54Of Reed Records too
00:31:56I hear he's much
00:31:57More selective
00:31:58Than Ed Reed
00:31:59So don't expect him
00:32:00To look at you twice
00:32:01And don't distract Dexter tonight
00:32:03Leave
00:32:04Or I will have security
00:32:05Escort you out
00:32:06I'd love
00:32:07To see you try
00:32:12Jealous?
00:32:13I loved him
00:32:14And those feelings
00:32:15Don't just go away
00:32:16How could she change
00:32:18His mind so easily?
00:32:21You can dress up
00:32:22All you want
00:32:24But you will always
00:32:26Just be Dexter's
00:32:28Lowly little errant girl
00:32:30I thought she was
00:32:31Someone important
00:32:32She's just a desperate
00:32:33Assistant
00:32:34Playing dress up
00:32:35Imagine getting dragged
00:32:37By the Scarlet heart
00:32:38I would never
00:32:39Emotionally recover
00:32:40Where do you think
00:32:41She got the jewels though?
00:32:42Probably out whoring
00:32:43Herself to old men
00:32:44Just like all those
00:32:46Desperate social climbers
00:32:47In our industry
00:32:48Hmm
00:32:49They got that right
00:32:50Hmm
00:32:52Is that so?
00:32:54Tell me something
00:32:55Scarlet
00:32:56Is it really me?
00:32:58Who's putting on an actor?
00:33:02Is it you?
00:33:04How dare you?
00:33:08Careful
00:33:08The new CEO
00:33:10Might be watching
00:33:11Yeah
00:33:12You think you're hot shit
00:33:14Just because
00:33:14You're the real Echo
00:33:15You may have the talent
00:33:17But you have no money
00:33:18And no connections
00:33:19Besides the ones
00:33:20You make
00:33:20In pay-by-the-hour hotel rooms
00:33:22But me
00:33:23I'm a beloved
00:33:24Up-and-coming pop star
00:33:25And if you so much
00:33:27As threaten me
00:33:28Or my career
00:33:29Ever again
00:33:30I will get you
00:33:30Canceled so fucking hard
00:33:32Your grandchildren
00:33:33Won't be able to
00:33:33Show their faces in public
00:33:37Mr. Reed
00:33:37Hi
00:33:38Dexter Hayes
00:33:39Thank you so much
00:33:40For the invite
00:33:41You've always
00:33:42Been a true hero
00:33:44Of mine
00:33:44I would really love
00:33:46To put that
00:33:47Well that incident
00:33:48With my assistant
00:33:50Behind us
00:33:51Dexter Hayes
00:33:53Of course I can
00:33:53Got you
00:33:55Oh I can't wait
00:33:56To see the look
00:33:57On his face
00:33:58When he realizes
00:33:59The assistant
00:34:00He rejected
00:34:01Is my daughter
00:34:02And the heiress
00:34:03To the Reed
00:34:04Records fortune
00:34:05Well you know sir
00:34:06Well you may
00:34:07Or may not
00:34:08Have heard about
00:34:08The record
00:34:09That Scarlet Heart
00:34:10And I are
00:34:10Working on
00:34:12I really think
00:34:12That between my lyrics
00:34:14And well
00:34:14Her producing
00:34:15And you're a musical genius
00:34:17Over the last many decades
00:34:19I think we could
00:34:19Really make something special
00:34:21Well you make
00:34:22A compelling point
00:34:24And you know
00:34:25If it's not too much
00:34:26It actually might be helpful
00:34:27For the record
00:34:28Well maybe if you could
00:34:29Put in a good word
00:34:29With the new CEO
00:34:32Well that would make me
00:34:33Forever grateful
00:34:36Why don't you put in
00:34:37A good word yourself
00:34:38The new CEO
00:34:39Is already here
00:34:51Casey
00:34:53Casey
00:34:54Casey
00:34:55Casey
00:34:56Casey
00:34:57Casey
00:34:59I've been trying to
00:35:00Call you
00:35:01The last few days
00:35:02And
00:35:02Well I guess
00:35:03I'm just surprised
00:35:04That instead
00:35:05You just showed up here
00:35:06I hated myself
00:35:08For wanting to pick up
00:35:09The phone
00:35:10For wanting to hear
00:35:11His voice again
00:35:12But after what he did
00:35:13To me
00:35:14I couldn't
00:35:15Give him the satisfaction
00:35:16Oh
00:35:17You've been calling me
00:35:18For the last few days
00:35:19What
00:35:20You missed me already?
00:35:21Did Ed Reed bring Casey
00:35:23As his date?
00:35:25This event
00:35:25Is invite only
00:35:30Yeah
00:35:31Dang
00:35:31I guess I left my invite
00:35:32At home
00:35:33But I think I'm gonna stay
00:35:35You know Scarlet
00:35:36On the other hand though
00:35:37Has been throwing around
00:35:38Nothing but
00:35:39Vile slander
00:35:41And empty accusations
00:35:42All night
00:35:43If anyone needs to go
00:35:44It should be her
00:35:45Unless
00:35:46You want me
00:35:47To expose your lies
00:35:48To Dexter
00:35:49Right here
00:35:49Right now
00:35:50Yeah right
00:35:51The only ones
00:35:52Who can remove me

00:35:55You have no power here
00:35:57Okay guys

00:36:36To someone
00:36:37Who's more precious to me
00:36:38Than any company
00:36:39Someone who grew up
00:36:40Listening to me play piano
00:36:41Who has written hundreds of songs
00:36:43And never put her name
00:36:45On one of them
00:36:47Because she never wanted
00:36:48To gain fame
00:36:50Through mine
00:36:51No more secrets
00:36:52Dexter Hayes
00:36:53It's time you finally
00:36:55Learned who you
00:36:56Really rejected
00:36:58Mr. Reed is looking
00:36:59Right at us
00:37:00He's gonna call us
00:37:01On stage
00:37:02Alright this is it
00:37:03He's gonna announce
00:37:04That he's signed us
00:37:05To read records
00:37:06I want to introduce
00:37:07The heir to my
00:37:09Billion dollar music empire
00:37:11And the new CEO
00:37:13Of Reed records
00:37:14My princess
00:37:17And the light of my life
00:37:19My daughter
00:37:20Casey Reed
00:37:26What?
00:37:31No
00:37:39Casey
00:37:56That's the Reed heiress?
00:37:58Holy shit
00:37:59She's not a sugar baby
00:38:00She's the daughter
00:38:01Of billionaire music royalty
00:38:04Scarlet Heart
00:38:04Is delusional
00:38:05Insulting the new CEO
00:38:07Of Reed records
00:38:08To her base
00:38:09She just committed
00:38:10Career suicide
00:38:11Mr. Reed
00:38:12Your gift
00:38:13For the lady of the hour
00:38:16That's millions
00:38:17Of dollars
00:38:18Of gold
00:38:19Dad
00:38:19This is too much
00:38:21Well something
00:38:22From your old man
00:38:22And now Dexter
00:38:23Will see that you're worth
00:38:24More than your weight in gold
00:38:26This cannot be happening
00:38:28She's a nobody
00:38:31I knew Casey was keeping secrets
00:38:33From me
00:38:34But I didn't know
00:38:35She was hiding
00:38:36Who she was
00:38:37Ed Reed was never
00:38:38Her sugar daddy
00:38:39He was her father
00:38:40This whole time
00:38:41She was with me
00:38:42For love
00:38:43Not fame
00:38:44She tried to tell me
00:38:45The truth
00:38:46And instead of trusting her
00:38:47I left her
00:38:48For another woman
00:38:49How could I be
00:38:50So blind
00:38:58Suits you
00:39:00The guitar
00:39:02And the CEO title
00:39:04Why can't you just say
00:39:06You miss me
00:39:07Casey
00:39:07I just
00:39:20I just
00:39:21I still miss you
00:39:32Shouldn't you be licking
00:39:33Your fiance's wounds
00:39:35Knowing
00:39:36She just insulted
00:39:37The CEO
00:39:38Of the most powerful
00:39:39Music company
00:39:40Has got to hurt
00:39:41But I mean
00:39:42You of all people
00:39:43Should know
00:39:43Please you have to believe me
00:39:45Okay
00:39:45If you just let me explain
00:39:46Explain what
00:39:47Dexter
00:39:48Why you want me back
00:39:49After finding out
00:39:50I'm your boss
00:39:53Or leaving me
00:39:54For Echo
00:39:57No
00:39:58No
00:39:58Look
00:39:58That's
00:39:59That's not why I'm here
00:40:00If you just let me tell you
00:40:01I
00:40:01I
00:40:02I mean
00:40:03Come on Casey
00:40:04I mean
00:40:04You gotta understand
00:40:06You're the one
00:40:06Who lied to me
00:40:07I lied
00:40:08Yeah
00:40:08And what would you call
00:40:09Getting engaged to Scarlet
00:40:10After promising to put a ring
00:40:12On my finger
00:40:13I didn't want
00:40:13Any of that to happen
00:40:15You have to believe me
00:40:16Please
00:40:16I was just trying to
00:40:19Look
00:40:19I
00:40:21Just tell me one thing
00:40:22I guess
00:40:22Why are you here
00:40:23Are you here just
00:40:24Is this just some
00:40:25Royal way to get revenge
00:40:26Tank my career
00:40:30Oh
00:40:31Tank your career
00:40:32I made his career
00:40:35I
00:40:35Loved you
00:40:37Dexter
00:40:37You might have found out
00:40:39Who my father is today
00:40:40But you still have no idea
00:40:41Who I am
00:40:43Wait
00:40:46This
00:40:47This is why you proposed to Scarlet
00:40:49Isn't it
00:40:50Why
00:40:51You left
00:40:53Me
00:40:53For dead
00:40:54Sucked up to my dad
00:40:57Threw me to the curb
00:40:59For the fame
00:41:01The fortune
00:41:02The fans
00:41:03No
00:41:03No
00:41:03No
00:41:04Actually
00:41:05I think
00:41:06It's time to make my first decision
00:41:08As the new CEO
00:41:10Can I get everyone's attention please
00:41:14I hope everyone is having fun
00:41:17Read Records
00:41:18Will be ending its contract
00:41:21With Dexter Hayes
00:41:22And dropping him
00:41:23As an artist
00:41:29Effective immediately
00:41:30Oh my god
00:41:31Oh my god
00:41:32Oh my god
00:41:36You know
00:41:37I am so glad
00:41:40I never told you
00:41:41Who I really was
00:41:42Because if I didn't
00:41:43I might not have ever found out
00:41:44That you don't really love me for me
00:41:46Easy
00:41:46None of that is true
00:41:48Okay
00:41:48None of this
00:41:49I don't care about that
00:41:49I've always loved you
00:41:51Don't bother arguing with her
00:41:52Anymore Dexter
00:41:53She may be rich
00:41:55But she's just an arrogant
00:41:56Nepo baby
00:41:57With no real talent
00:41:59Scarlet is Echo
00:42:00She can produce
00:42:01Wait wait
00:42:02Casey
00:42:02She can get you to the top of the charts
00:42:04With or without
00:42:05Read Records
00:42:06Dexter you don't need her
00:42:08She doesn't understand you
00:42:10Like Scarlet does
00:42:11Okay
00:42:11Mom
00:42:12Mom
00:42:12Stop
00:42:13You're my mom
00:42:14Not my manager
00:42:16Alright
00:42:17I'm done talking about this
00:42:38I've known you for years
00:42:44I've thought you'd stay the same
00:42:48All of those years
00:43:01You acordes
00:43:04I'm still missing you
00:43:10I'm still
00:43:12And I'm still
00:43:15I'm still missing you
00:43:43I thought I was clear our relationship is over, Mr. Hayes.
00:43:45You're no longer welcome at Reed Records.
00:43:48I just came to pick up my equipment.
00:43:52Casey's wrong about me. I 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. Let'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. I'm your former boss now.
00:44:32In 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.
00:44:43I 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 not 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.
00:45:13I don't care what the 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 Scarlet.
00:46:11Hello?
00:46:12Tell Sasha Silver I'm on my way. Thank you.
00:46:15Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on. Sasha 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.
00:46:24I 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. You don't need him.
00:46:32He'll hurt you. No, 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. Casey. Casey!
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. Make 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. I'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?
00:48:00I 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! What the fuck?
00:48:23You really think you can drug me?
00:48:25And then what? Force 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. And a fraud.
00:48:44I'll be sure no label will ever sign you, no matter how talented you are.
00:48:50I want me to be able to sign me.
00:48:52Not when I can read records.
00:48:54Or myself.
00:48:57Don't be shy, Casey.
00:48:58I'm just hoping you get ready.
00:49:00The paparazzi will be here any minute to see my new mistress.
00:49:02They'll plaster our photos all over the tabloids.
00:49:06Everyone will see what a slut you are.
00:49:07How you slept your way to the top.
00:49:10Your poor father.
00:49:12He's gonna have no choice.
00:49:13But to hand you and your company over to me.
00:49:16You're delusional!
00:49:18Stay away from me!
00:49:20I'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!
00:49:29Huh?
00:49:30Are you okay?
00:49:32I'm fine.
00:49:36What the fuck, Hayes?
00:49:38I could sue you for that.
00:49:41I'd love to see you try, sweetheart.
00:49:43You'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.
00:49:56You kinda wanted to defend this used-up slut.
00:50:00I mean, what the fuck?
00:50:03The name is K.C. Wee.
00:50:06And she's the future of the industry that you want so badly fucking in!
00:50:12Your career is dead, Sasha.
00:50:14I'm not sure of that.
00:50:17Let's go.
00:50:24Let's go.
00:50:28Give me your hand.
00:50:36Casey, I've been telling you for months.
00:50:38Sasha Silver is little-
00:50:39My business is none of your concern.
00:50:42If I didn't show up tonight, what the hell do you think would've happened?
00:50:45Do you have any idea what he could've done to you?
00:50:47He could've raped you.
00:50:48Yes! Okay!
00:50:49Hey!
00:50:49I know!
00:50:51Newsflash!
00:50:52I'm not your assistant!
00:50:54Anymore!
00:50:55So, it's not your concern where I am or what I'm doing.
00:50:58Okay?
00:50:59Okay.
00:50:59So, stop...
00:51:02...following me.
00:51:06The car is still fucking moving.
00:51:09I'll stop following you the minute that you stop making stupid fucking decisions.
00:51:16And when I've made up for all the danger I've put her in.
00:51:21You're way...
00:51:24...too interested in my personal life, Dex.
00:51:28Won't your fiancé be jealous?
00:51:34I've been trying to tell you for weeks I did not want to marry Scarlet.
00:51:41But you don't fucking listen.
00:51:43Now you're really starting to piss me off.
00:51:46Isn't that the point?
00:51:47You're right.
00:51:57So...
00:51:58What 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.
00:52:18And you know it.
00:52:28Boss! I have news!
00:52:31Thank you for your help today, Dexter.
00:52:37Please, stop following me.
00:52:41Or else it's gonna get harder and harder.
00:52:44To walk away.
00:52:54Great timing.
00:52:56As always.
00:52:57Why are you even here? I'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.
00:53:08Good.
00:53:09Buy all the rights 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 have gotten real ugly if he hadn't shown up.
00:53:29I could have handled Sasha.
00:53:30There was also a huge leak in the press.
00:53:33All of Sasha Silver's dirty laundry aired out for everyone to see.
00:53:36He's been, uh, what do you kids call it? Cancelled.
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? For me?
00:53:58Maybe.
00:53:59Maybe. He's not as bad as I thought.
00:54:01Or maybe he should stop interfering himself with my life.
00:54:09The world-famous music producer, Echo, is set to finally reveal their identity at the legendary Universal Music Awards tomorrow
00:54:16night.
00:54:18Scarlet's getting desperate.
00:54:19She's trying to convince the world she's Echo before it can expose her lies.
00:54:23She can't keep up the act forever.
00:54:25Sooner or later, Dexter will realize she can't even hold a tune.
00:54:28Much less produce a hit track.
00:54:31Scarlet is nothing if she's not Echo.
00:54:33She knows Dexter wouldn't look at her twice, let alone marry her, if she wasn't pretending to be a genius
00:54:39producer.
00:54:40I don't know how she thinks she's gonna get away with it.
00:54:43I think it's time the world finds out who the real Echo is.
00:54:51You want to go to the UMAs as Echo?
00:54:54They'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. Or 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 gonna go as Echo, oh, you're gonna 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.
00:55:48Mrs. Hayes! It's so good to see you again.
00:55:54How's Dexter?
00:55:55Engaged.
00:55:56Yes, my future daughter-in-law is performing at the Universal Music Awards tomorrow.
00:56:02And I'd like to gift her something to mark the occasion.
00:56:05So 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. I have the perfect gift for her.
00:56:16A custom Fender Signature Stratocaster.
00:56:19Okay.
00:56:25Please don't touch that.
00:56:27Those instruments are only for our VIP clientele.
00:56:31Ugh. It'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, now.
00:56:47I'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.
00:57:00Tell 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.
00:57:10Yeah.
00:57:12You're right.
00:57:13In that case.
00:57:15You should have this.
00:57:23No!
00:57:28Oh my God!
00:57:34Oops.
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.
00:57:56You need to set that up for me?
00:57:57Yes, of course, Mr. Hayes.
00:57:59Okay.
00:58:02Just kidding.
00:58:04It's all yours now.
00:58:05Oh!
00:58:14Scarlett, ignore this wannabe musician.
00:58:18We'll find a better option.
00:58:21Mmm.
00:58:22Mmm.
00:58:25Like this one.
00:58:27Beyonce used this on her last album.
00:58:30This instrument is worthy of Echo, the genius producer.
00:58:35Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:58:37Actually, this guitar is no longer available.
00:58:41In fact, my entire collection is on hold for the new owner.
00:58:46I'm gonna just...
00:58:49My apologies, my apologies.
00:58:50Apologies, 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.
00:59:32Ma, 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.
00:59:43The least you could do is show her a little respect.
00:59:48You know what, actually, I'm sorry, you're right.
00:59:51I should show respect to the one person who's always been there for me.
00:59:58Please ring up the guitar for Ms. Hunt.
01:00:00I knew you would support me.
01:00:02Mr. Hayes, it's not for sale.
01:00:05You know, why don't you ask the new owner how much it costs,
01:00:08and I'll pay it whatever it is right here and now.
01:00:12Ms. Reed, as the new owner of the store,
01:00:15how much would you like to charge the guitar for?
01:00:17Wait, what?
01:00:21I'm sorry, I'm the new owner?
01:00:26Consider it 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?
01:00:43Dexter, are you insane?
01:00:46She's not even a real musician, and you gave her the entire store?
01:00:50You're gonna make us pay her for a guitar?
01:00:55Oh, it's okay.
01:00:56Scarlet could have it for free.
01:00:58As 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.
01:01:29One, I'm not your assistant anymore.
01:01:32It's Ms. Reed, and I'm the CEO of Reed Records.
01:01:35Two.
01:01:37My 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? What secret?
01:01:58Should I tell him the truth?
01:02:01No.
01:02:01That 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.
01:02:41Dexter, 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. The 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.
01:03:19No.
01:03:19Scarlet!
01:03:34You can't start the show without me.
01:03:40I knew you'd make it.
01:03:41Of course she did.
01:03:42Her daddy probably got her a ticket after she cried about being left out.
01:03:45Dexter, 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.
01:04:01Oh. Guess we'll see who's real and who's fake tonight.
01:04:05Wreck-a-leg, Scarlet. Or 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?
01:04:46I didn't even make that version.
01:04:47I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me one of her reject tracks.
01:04:50Go fix this.
01:04:52Now.
01:04:55This is bad. All right. Everyone's just out there staring at us.
01:04:58We're gonna ruin 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.
01:05:08Right?
01:05:18Yes. It's true.
01:05:21I'm Echo.
01:05:22The award-winning producer and Dexter Hayes' long-time mystery collaborator.
01:05:27Then prove it.
01:05:29Go ahead.
01:05:30Why don't you mix us a live track right here, right now?
01:05:33Come on. You're a genius producer, right?
01:05:36I mean, this is your chance to show off your talents.
01:05:39I mean, the whole world is watching.
01:05:42I don't know what any of these buttons even do.
01:05:44This bitch is trying to sabotage me.
01:05:47I must have another file I can play.
01:05:49I'll just make it look like I'm mixing in real time.
01:05:52Of course.
01:05:54Watch me work my magic.
01:06:13And that's how it's done.
01:06:15Show must go on.
01:06:17Nice try.
01:06:18Scarlett's proven herself enough.
01:06:20You can stop with the jealous witch hunt now.
01:06:24Okay, can you boost the treble on the EQ in the middle?
01:06:26And can you pan from stage left to stage right real quick?
01:06:32Yeah.
01:06:39Damn, I guess you're gonna have to do it the old-fashioned way.
01:06:42That means recording the instruments live, looping the-
01:06:45Don't listen to her!
01:06:47She doesn't know what it takes to make a track of my caliber.
01:06:50And this isn't the first time one of Dexter's tracks have been corrupted.
01:06:54If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were trying to sabotage her-
01:06:58Scarlett, Scarlett, why would Casey do that?
01:07:00For real, okay?
01:07:01You're-
01:07:01You're Echo.
01:07:02Okay?
01:07:03So, just fix the track.
01:07:06Yeah.
01:07:07Come on, Echo.
01:07:09What, you have performance anxiety?
01:07:19Scarlett, you are our only hope now.
01:07:21You have to fix this!
01:07:23I could!
01:07:24If 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
01:07:38the brilliant Echo and how you made Dexter Hayes a superstar?
01:07:41Echo!
01:07:42Echo!
01:07:43Echo!
01:07:45Echo!
01:07:46Echo!
01:07:47Just your Echo, okay?
01:07:50Record some MIDI instruments, lay them down, make a track.
01:07:52It's that simple.
01:07:53You know how to do this.
01:07:55You really think your fiance is going to be able to fix this show?
01:07:58I mean, if she goes down, you go down with her.
01:08:03Casey shouldn't even be here.
01:08:05I can't let her expose me.
01:08:06Not when I'm so close to marrying Dexter and becoming a pop legend.
01:08:32Is this part of her process?
01:08:34It would take a true genius to make that racket sound like music.
01:08:58Oh my god, is Scarlet Heart tone deaf?
01:09:02Come on, Echo.
01:09:03Show them your talent.
01:09:04Keep going.
01:09:04Hey!
01:09:05Get off the stage!
01:09:07You're ruining the UMAs!
01:09:11Alright, look.
01:09:14It's done.
01:09:15You're really going to give up that easily, Dex?
01:09:18You're going to throw it all away because of Scarlet?
01:09:20Yeah.
01:09:21I am.
01:09:22That whole career that I fought for for however, how many years?
01:09:26Yeah.
01:09:29Because you know what?
01:09:32Someone that I was close to once told me that there's a lot more to life than just your career.
01:09:38And who knows, maybe I can get a cool new gig as a personal assistant for the new CEO of
01:09:42Read Records.
01:09:45Dexter, stop it with those awful jokes.
01:09:49Your entire life's work is on the line.
01:09:51Mom, you heard the track, okay?
01:09:54There's no saving this song.
01:09:56Now it's over.
01:09:57It's over.
01:10:12Well, I guess it's time for the next act of this show.
01:10:16No!
01:10:17No!
01:10:18There's no...
01:10:19There's...
01:10:19There's no other...
01:10:20It'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.
01:10:56Hmm.
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.
01:11:43Good.
01:11:47Now let's make a hit.
01:11:56Let's fucking go!
01:12:13Wait, what is she doing?
01:12:16I mean, you produced this right, so do you want to go ahead and take over?
01:12:19I-I-I can't.
01:12:21I don't have-
01:12:21But-
01:12:22You don't need anything except for a band and raw talent.
01:12:26I mean, you are a musician, right?
01:12:31Since when is Casey Reed a musical junior?
01:12:34That sound, it's familiar.
01:12:37You are not the kind for a show.
01:12:42This is not a one-time thing.
01:12:45Stop! Stop it!
01:13:00You are Echo.
01:13:02You are Echo.
01:13:02Does this mean Casey Reed is Echo?
01:13:06This is my song! She just ripped it off!
01:13:09Who's stealing now, Scarlet?
01:13:11Don't listen to her!
01:13:13I'm Echo!
01:13:17I didn't even make that version. I had to pay Taylor Swift's producer to send me one of her reject
01:13:21tracks. Go fix this.
01:13:26Now everyone knows the truth.
01:13:33She's the one that saved the song.
01:13:34No, that was me!
01:13:36I already did all the work, she's just taking the credit!
01:13:39I had to mix the track live, Dexter, so that makes it my intellectual property.
01:13:45You're welcome to put it on your next album, but 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.
01:13:56200 million.
01:13:58200 million?
01:13:59For one song?
01:14:01That's more than our entire album deal, are you insane?
01:14:04And, I want my name to be credited.
01:14:08Bad deal, Miss Reed.
01:14:11And one last thing.
01:14:13I want a public apology from Scarlet Heart and Amelia Hayes.
01:14:18That's ridiculous! Why should we apologize to you?
01:14:22I mean, you don't have to. I could just go ahead and leave and then Scarlet could finish the album
01:14:26and...
01:14:26Dexter's career could crash and burn, so...
01:14:29What will it be?
01:14:35The clock is ticking.
01:14:38I was wrong about you. You saved Dexter's song.
01:14:43I'm sorry.
01:14:47And you?
01:14:49Do it.
01:14:50Do it. Apologize to her.
01:14:52That bitch!
01:14:53Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:14:55She ruined everything!
01:14:57Come on, let's hear it.
01:14:58Tell the world the truth.
01:14:59Scarlet?
01:15:00Fine!
01:15:01I'm not Echo!
01:15:02I pretended and I never wrote or produced any of Dexter's songs!
01:15:06They are happy!
01:15:11I was wrong about you.
01:15:13I was wrong about you.
01:15:13You saved Dexter's song.
01:15:16I'm sorry.
01:15:20And you?
01:15:21Do it.
01:15:23Apologize to her.
01:15:24That bitch!
01:15:25Why do I have to apologize to her?
01:15:27She ruined everything!
01:15:29Come on, let's hear it.
01:15:30Tell the world the truth.
01:15:31Scarlet?
01:15:32Fine!
01:15:34I'm not Echo!
01:15:35I pretended and I never wrote or produced any of Dexter's songs!
01:15:38They are happy?!
01:15:42They are happy?!
01:15:45Wait, that's not what I really meant!
01:15:48Dexter!
01:15:50She manipulated me!
01:15:51You're still my fiancé!
01:15:52You believe-
01:15:53Scarlet, you are exactly what we all see.
01:15:56Fucked fraud and you're a damn liar!
01:15:59Casey is the one who built my career.
01:16:02Hell, she's the one who saved the damn song!
01:16:05She's the only one who ever cared about me or loved me.
01:16:10Our engagement is off.
01:16:12And so is the record.
01:16:28No!
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.
01:16:42Career's over.
01:16:49You got yourself a deal case.
01:16:59Hit it.
01:17:04If we're not here for long, tell me where would we belong?
01:17:16My back is passed against the wall.
01:17:20I need you to know I'm not afraid to fall.
01:17:27Your name's on fire in my wings.
01:17:33It's burning through my chains.
01:17:37Who are you to tell me why?
01:17:43Who am I to live a lie?
01:17:48This mirror shows a thousand phases.
01:17:52But none of them can blow.
01:17:55Oh, oh, oh, oh
01:18:25Oh, oh, oh, oh
01:18:50Miss Reed, the whole world wants to know
01:18:53Are you the award-winning genius music producer Echo?
01:18:56I think everyone saw the broadcast and my work speaks for itself
01:19:00You are a revolution in the music industry
01:19:03And we can't wait to see what you do next Echo
01:19:08You arrogant fucking whore
01:19:11You ruined everything
01:19:15Dexter was gonna be mine
01:19:17I was gonna be the biggest pop star in the world
01:19:30But you have to get in my way
01:19:34That won't happen again
01:19:36Hey, say
01:19:37Dex, no
01:19:49Dex, Dex, stay with me
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
01:20:12But have you stopped and asked yourself
01:20:14Why 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
01:20:22Casey
01:20:24Dexter was an absolute idiot for betraying you, okay?
01:20:28But without him, I would have lost my baby girl
01:20:32And those two songs you two produced together
01:20:35They 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?
01:20:51Maybe your love story isn't over
01:20:53The other Reed Records executives
01:20:56Want Dexter to headline the big festival
01:20:58And sign him to the label again
01:21:00You know, if our CEO approves
01:21:08Dexter's sleeping
01:21:09But 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
01:21:36One centimeter to the right
01:21:38He could have punctured his lung
01:21:41If Dex couldn't sing anymore
01:21:43His life might as well be over
01:21:45Oh, hopefully he'll recover
01:21:47But for now
01:21:48All he needs 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
01:22:08I will never forgive you
01:22:11Never
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
01:22:36I miss you
01:22:42I miss him too
01:22:43But everything we've put each other through
01:22:46Can we really be together again?
01:22:49You saved my life
01:22:51And
01:22:54I will be forever grateful
01:22:59And in return
01:23:00I'll give you your song for free
01:23:02And
01:23:02We can go our separate ways
01:23:04We can end on a high note
01:23:05No
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
01:23:56Lose you
01:23:57And I
01:23:59But I'd rather risk that
01:24:00Than losing your life forever
01:24:07When I said I loved you, Dexter
01:24:09I meant it
01:24:11I don't want to be with anyone else
01:24:14Me neither
01:24:19You're my little muse
01:24:22My pop star
01:24:27Which
01:24:29Reminds me
01:24:32Reed Records
01:24:33Would like to formally
01:24:35Invite you to headline the wildlife list
01:24:38The wildlife festival is the biggest music stage
01:24:41In the world
01:24:43You saved their CEO
01:24:44You deserve it
01:24:45You'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
01:24:51If I don't have you
01:24:52You
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
01:25:06Or what you have
01:25:07Or any of that stuff
01:25:09I don't even want to sing or have this career
01:25:11I'd give it up in a second
01:25:12If it meant just being with you
01:25:14That's all I need
01:25:17We do it together
01:25:23I don't have a sound without you, Dexter Hayes
01:25:26Okay
01:25:29I want us to do this together
01:25:34I love you
01:25:36I love you, too
01:25:50This is the biggest cry I've ever seen in my life
01:25:55Maybe we better give them one hell of a show
01:25:59Yes, ma'am
01:26:09I wrote this song with Casey Reed
01:26:12Who is my echo
01:26:14But more importantly
01:26:15She is undoubtedly the love of my life
01:26:21So, I hope you enjoy
01:26:30I love you, too
01:26:44Just remember
01:26:46It will be time I remember to smile

01:27:11The stuff in the stockings
01:27:14But I am still walking

01:27:32That's lost forever

01:27:39That it's time for you and me
01:27:43That it's time for you and me
