The video then cuts to her standing on the edge of an overpass, contemplating jumping. After having her purse stolen by another young man (played by then-unknown Josh Holloway of Lost), she chases him down and knocks him to the ground. She begins a phase of rebellion and individuality and gets a navel piercing, which has largely been credited as introducing navel piercing to mainstream culture. She then punches him and shoves him out of the car, leaving him in the dust. She feigns an attempt to kiss him, but instead leans away, annoying him. The video flashes back and forth between the band and Silverstone, who plays a teen who has a falling out with her boyfriend (played by Stephen Dorff) after catching him cheating. In the video, the band performs in the Central Congregational Church in Fall River, Massachusetts. Silverstone was 16 years old when "Cryin'" was filmed.
