He stays all night outside his house but Rihanna goes to the garage and drives away wearing a red leather jacket with red lipstick looking powerful and intimidating.

[edit] Reviews
Take A Bow use of the dominant colors, red and black, spoke out power, anger and revenge for Rihanna which was what the song was all about. The use of light was smart keeping the focus on the key emelents. Every detail of the video was well thought through. -Mimi 01:00, 31 July 2008 (PST)
