Not if she wears a bikini throughout. That's how you tell they are
taking the plot seriously.

If you've ever played a game like World of Warcraft you would know

The 2x60 docuseries explores the gripping feud between global
pop-superstar Taylor Swift and music industry mogul Scooter Braun,
delving into the $300 million dispute after Braun bought the rights to
Swift's first six albums in June 2019.

What is there to discuss? She never owned the physical master
recordings, which is typical of musicians paid by a major recording
label. She figured out a solution: She re-recorded them, then
re-released them, then made a ton of money by exploiting her oldest
material, songs about all the boys she dumped in junior high school and
how they disappointed her.

Yeah, for anyone that likely might care enough to watch this they
likely already know the story. You've summarized it quite well. The
only bits you might have included where about the personal issues
Taylor had with the guy, but again it is the sort of detail I expect
any Taylor fan already knows.
