[edit] Music video

The video for "She Loves Me Not" shows the band playing in run down theme park which people are using as a social area. The content is mostly perfomanced based with cuts to people in the park who are vandalising it, fighting etc. It was directed by David Meyers.

[edit] Freeze frame

At 3 points in the video, a person appears out of nowhere in front of the camera for a single frame, similar to methods used in subliminal messaging.

The first two appearances are the same man with his face painted like a skull appearing when Jaccoby finishes the lines "Will this be an amputation?" in the first verse and "I'm the jerk" in the first chorus.

The last person is a woman with pink and black hair and feather scarves appearing at about 2:08, the same woman appears watching the sumo wrestlers at about 1:10.

Other strange single frame appearances are commonplace throughout the video, including two ghostly figures on the bottom left of the frame at 1:05 (These may also be the ghostly figures at appear in the background at 0:26 and 2:19). Another figure appears at 2:30 on the right side of the tree then vanishes.
