"Miss Atomic Bomb" sees actress Izabella Miko and actor Eric Roberts reprise their roles from the "Mr. Brightside" video.
Akin to the events in "Mr Brightside", the imaginary stranger in the desert forms its identity as the dance partner and Flowers makes his way towards the young woman's house in a troubled state.
Flowers then ages visibly and heads for his trailer home in the desert as he is plagued by visions of the young woman's fate after he abandoned her on that night all those years ago.
The memories then repeat in live acting, with the young woman tearfully holding up the engagement ring that he had left behind and recalling the night that she had found him in the desert.
As the New Year's countdown ends, the young woman rushes out onto her balcony in excitement, only to see Flowers standing in the street glaring up at her and then walking away bitterly, leaving her in confusion.
The last shots of the music video show the letter on the doormat disappearing and the elderly man sitting alone in his trailer home, reflecting on his past as a photo of the young woman on his shelf slowly begins to fade from view.
