Anahi is a patient in an insane asylum. During the day, she's inconspicuous while in the night she is seen dancing and having a good time. The video begins with Anahi wearing a straitjacket and pantyhose simulating a mentally broken down attack. It later shows her and the "patients", having neurological problems taking pills, As the chorus kicks off, she is seen wearing a black top showing her stomach and a black skirt dancing with her backup dancers. In the second verse, Anahí appears tied in a table, receiving electroshocks, and in a bed with red sheets wearing all black lingerie through the chorus again. Through the third verse, she is seen sitting in a swing and later disappearing. The video ends with Anahi having a party with her dancers and all of the patients.
