--=== Music Video Explanation ===--

The opening action is a real-time, where Squall and Seifer are fighting and Rinoa is watching over them.  She doesn’t look very concerned, does she?  Flashback to the chronological beginning of the story, where Squall is coming home from his military duties, reflecting on what he’s been through.  He is reunited with his girlfriend.  The awkwardly spliced ring scene represents a proposal.  Flash forward in time to the dance.  Rinoa sees Seifer over Squall’s shoulder.  Seifer: “You’re cute.”  Rinoa: “You’re cute too.”  Seifer: “Come hither.” Rinoa: “Okay!”  Poor abandoned Squall.

Flash forward in time as he spies on Seifer and his precious Ri-Ri having a tryst.  Poor despondent Squall.  He gets the strength to take back what is his, so he rushes Seifer.  Now we’re back in the real-time battle from the beginning.  Rinoa likes that they’re fighting over her.  Squall reflects on what’s going on with Ri-Ri and if he’s doing the right thing (check out the white/black feather symbolism, ooooh).  Rinoa freaks when Squall hits Seifer, and she throws the icicles at Squall.

Then we switch to Seifer’s POV, jealously looking at Rinoa while she is worried about what she did to Squall.  Squall wakes up pissed off at Ri-Ri, and Seifer is pissed off at her, too, the duplicitous bitch.  Seifer chases Rinoa to bring smackdown on her ass.  Rinoa reflects on the rings at her neck—“Maybe I have been a duplicitous bitch.”  Scene change to Seifer delivering Rinoa to Squall.  Seifer hits Rinoa with a fireball.  Squall and Seifer shoot Rinoa into space (and they go too, but apparently don’t need spacesuits :)).  Knowing she’s been caught, Rinoa thinks back on how her men loved her.  Squall commits girlfriend-icide.  More reflection!  Squall remembers the happy times with Ri-Ri and feels bad about killing her.  Unable to cope, Squall impales himself with his hefty gunblade.

THE END.
