"No good deed goes unpunished/ That's my new creed," the vocalist belts effortlessly as the music and Copeland's choreography intensifies. "My road of good intentions led where such roads always lead." After Erivo nails a custom riff on the final note, she and Copeland take hands and strike a stunning pose side by side.
