Story Guide

Episode 1

Bianca's new cover just crossed a million views, and everyone assumes the gorgeous face on screen is the voice behind it. It isn't. Ariana is the real singer — the secret half of their TikTok account, happy to stay backstage because she doesn't want to be loved for being flashy or rich. Together, she believes, they're unstoppable.

Then she spots Chad's hand sliding up Bianca's skirt. Her boyfriend and her best friend, tangled up behind her back. Bianca even admits she likes the thrill of sneaking around. After everything Ariana gave them, the betrayal lands like a slap — and it's only the beginning.

Episode 2

The worst day of Ariana's life gets worse: reeling from the betrayal, she's hit by a car while everyone just watches. Hudson — her childhood friend she hasn't spoken to since she started dating Chad — is the one who reaches her first, telling her not to move because he's got her.

Meanwhile Bianca panics, not about Ariana's injuries, but about the talent show three days away. She needs Ariana's voice to win, and Chad has no idea whose voice she's been using. Ariana overhears more than they realize. Something in her hardens: she won't let them walk all over her anymore.

Episode 3

Ariana pretends she heard nothing, but she's already planning. Chad, shameless as ever, wants his car back — and tells her she can simply buy it off him for a hundred grand. Ariana calls his bluff, then quietly resolves to take back everything the two of them stole: her money, her voice.

At the nurse's office she asks about the boy who carried her in and learns Hudson stayed for hours, stepping out only for a call about transferring schools. Hudson, leaving? Ariana's next move is clear — she has to stop him before he goes.

Episode 4

Hudson and Ariana go way back — best friends since childhood. He warned her Chad was trouble, and she stopped speaking to him for it. Now, recovering, she finally admits how wrong she was.

She remembers the night Chad ditched her alone after his game, and how she threatened to cut Hudson off for calling Chad out. Hudson probably hates her now. But when he offers to take her back to the nurse, she apologizes and asks him not to transfer. Please stay by her side. And he holds her.

Episode 5

Hudson is the school's heartthrob and basketball MVP, and half the school has been chasing his attention all semester. So when he's seen getting cozy with Ariana, the jealousy turns vicious — and Chad storms over demanding answers. Why is his girlfriend all over another guy?

Ariana doesn't flinch. She asks whether he was ever really her boyfriend, then ends it: she's done, and they're breaking up. Chad sneers that she begged him to date her, and calls her meltdown a show for attention. Ariana tells him he's not stupid — he's delusional. Hudson steps in as Chad pushes closer.

Episode 6

Chad is late to practice again, and the captain isn't having it — five laps, no arguments. Chad fires back, flexing his scoring and his title, threatening to bench him for the season. The tension between them is now personal.

Ariana tries to reach Hudson, insisting she isn't there to make Chad jealous, that the breakup is real. She doesn't want games or drama — she just wants her best friend back. Hudson's guard stays up; he's tired of being dragged into her mess. But when she asks him not to transfer, he finally relents and agrees to stay.

Episode 7

Class settles in, and people notice Ariana seems different — more confident, more aura. Chad's teammates tease him about her, but he scoffs, insisting he's not into that dweeb. The gossip shifts to Hudson, the star player, and which girl might catch his eye.

Bianca watches it all with a cold, calculating smile. She sizes up the attention Hudson draws and decides she wants a piece of it — someone hot and filthy rich. Underneath the chatter, her vow is unmistakable: in the end, she intends to take everything from Ariana.

Episode 8

Bianca panics when Ariana considers singing at school — what if people recognize the voice? The talent show's prize is huge: a record deal with a major label. Bianca wants that stage badly, but she can't sing a single note.

When Bianca threatens to jump rather than give up her dream, Ariana caves and agrees to hide backstage and sing in her place. Bianca promises to keep her as a secret voice double, calling them besties. But Ariana's patience is gone. This time, she plans to show everyone who Bianca really is.

Episode 9

Ariana goes looking for Hudson and walks straight into an awkward scene — he's mid-change, and the room clears out fast. Flustered, she scrambles to look away, reminding herself he's just her best friend. Sure, he's hot now, but she can't think of him that way. Her brain clearly disagrees.

Once things settle, she pitches her plan: the talent show is tomorrow, and she's going to expose Bianca as the lip-syncing fraud she is. She needs Hudson's help. He's in — no questions, no conditions.

Episode 10

Hudson gets pulled away by the coach, leaving Ariana still tangled in the awkwardness of the moment. She tries to brush it off, but the plan is what matters now. The competition is here, and Hudson tells her he's never been able to say no to her.

Bianca and Chad probably assumed Ariana would hide backstage in the shadows forever. Not today. She gave Bianca her voice once — now she's taking back the spotlight, and the stage belongs to her.

Watch it play out and see whose voice the crowd is really cheering for.
