Synopsis

Directed by Anton Tammi, the clip stars The Weeknd as a lounge lizard-like fellow who bears a passing resemblance to jazz legend Herbie Hancock, circa 1978's Sunlight. The video opens with The Weeknd laughing as blood drips down his face, then jumps back in time to show the mayhem that led to this gruesome end — the pop star speeding around a deserted city, dancing gleefully in the streets.] The visual follows the events of the music video for "Heartless" and sees The Weeknd go on a hallucinated joyride after waking from a trance. It concludes with The Weeknd having flashbacks to a club he attended earlier during the night, where he was serenaded by a mysterious woman, played by Japanese actress Miki Hamano and beat up by a duo of bouncers who had forced him to be on the run. The video depicts various actions performed by the singer amid a story inspired by the films Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Joker, and Casino.
