While both groups run in opposite directions, Keke Palmer glances at the leader of the rival gang, and it's revealed that the video is related to Romeo and Juliet. Keke Palmer then starts to sing and begins dancing around an old warehouse. When Jeremih sings his verse, the leader of the rival gang is driving his car with plane tickets in his hand. Keke Palmer abandons the group and tries to run away but the leader runs after her. Keke Palmer does a dance number ending with her hand around his neck in an attempt to choke him, and she continues to run to the nearest exit. The video ends with her hugging the rival gang leader.
