Synopsis

edit

The video, which features a love interest played by Yasmin Baildon, is about a girl Simpson wants to make his girlfriend. In the beginning of the video, Cody is seen walking towards Baildon, but is woken up by the alarm on his iPhone, revealing it was a dream. As he is walking downstairs he sees an image of Baildon, but it is a hallucination. He jumps in the car with a friend and goes to a concert rehearsal. He is dancing to the original choreography on the video. He then sees Balidon and runs after her, but she has driven off with her friend. He then imagines what life would be like with her, with them jumping into a pool at the end of his fantasy. He is seen dancing in the rain with many people. After, Simpson's love interest shows up at what seems to be a party. They reach out for each other's hand and the music video comes to an end.[4]
