Roxie is shocked, but accepts the contract to pay the family debts and on Marz' promise to produce her band after Sienna's album. However, Sienna uses Roxie's original voice as if it were her own and, when the original singer revokes her rights, Marz denies her story. Roxie is helped by Nick, Marz's assistant, to expose the world to her talent and that Sienna's singing voice is really Roxie.
