 The video begins with Usher exiting the club in which the " Love in This Club " video takes place , then shows a fiery transition into the next scene , showing the burnt @-@ down club . As the song begins , Usher inspects the smoking ruins and imagines a woman in a shard of a broken mirror . He travels through a desert , and takes off his jacket to reveal a tight @-@ fitting t @-@ shirt , and again imagines the woman , this time in a desert pond . Upon reaching a mountain on which his love interest appears , Usher climb the mountain and rain starts to fall . When he reaches the top of the mountain , the rain clears to be replaced by snowfall . Usher finds that the woman is , yet again , merely an illusion . He opens a locket to reveal a portrait of himself and his partner , which freezes over and cracks . As the video ends , Usher kneels , and the mountains breaks around him , leaving a sole pillar for him to stand on .
