Video
The video features Esmeralda as a student who feels wronged by a male classmate who keeps stalking her. She then gets revenge on him by driving her motorcycle into a trap and jumping off before the motorcycle crash lands in the water, drops the boy in the water, and sets off a Rube Goldberg-style device that drops a giant ball down a waterslide and lights up a series of lights that spell out "C-H-E-A-T-E-R". At the end, Esmeralda plants a pie in the boy's face.

Emily Henning co-stars as the teacher in the video.
