Synopsis
The video begins with Carpenter sleeping on a bed. She then wakes up and begins levitating over the bed. She is then seen in another bed that is in a very messy room. The same room which the ASMR video was shot. In the messy room she is seen brushing her hair, walking around, dancing and fidgeting with several items in the room including a lava lamp and stuffed animals. Then as the chorus starts Carpenter is seen with googly and hypnosis eyes. Carpenter is then seen in a green suit laying on a floor in three spots individually. She is then seen in all three places at the same time where there are three of her. After that, Carpenter is in the same green suit where four of her are on a couch. The camera then moves out of the couch scene to the messy room in the form of the couch scene looking like a picture. Carpenter is then once again seen with her hypnosis eyes. The camera zooms in on her hypnosis eyes and a bunch of Carpenter's head are seen swirling around. The next scene Carpenter is seen wearing a white straitjacket in a room with a bunch of black and white photos of her in the past. Carpenter is then seen in that same room where a bunch of doctors are evaluating her. She is later seen dancing with them. The camera then goes into a picture in the back of the room that shows the room at a different time. That is done a number of times. The video ends with Carpenter going back on the bed she was levitating above at the beginning.
