The video was directed by Daniel "Cloud" Campos, who produced and directed Panic! at the Disco's music video for "This is Gospel", from the album Too Weird to Live, Too Rare to Die! (2013). The music video takes place following the events that happened in the video for "This is Gospel" and sees Urie's transition at the moment when his body dies and his soul heads off into a white light. "Emperor's New Clothes" takes over as Brendon begins searching through the white light and fog, only to be dropped through a trap door down into Hell and darkness. Looking for love in "This Is Gospel," he finds a transformation into a symbol of evil and desire for power.
