The video begins with the foursome playing inside their tour bus when suddenly Kendall gets a text message from his girlfriend which says "its over". As they arrive to their next venue they find out it's actually a country club and then Carlos finds a button on his Camcorder that says: ROCK OUT, after touching it the camcorder changes the way people and things look and makes them rock, which is when the music sequence starts. The video ends at an indoor concert the group holds inside one of the rooms of the country club. According to Kendall Schmidt, the group rented a mansion to film the video.
