In order to avoid confusion with the soap opera (also entitled "Long Road to Ruin") and the "real world", the scenes in the soap opera have brown tones to make it more vintage, while the real world retains normal color. Actress Rashida Jones guest stars as "Racinda Jules" ("Susan Belfontaine", the doctor's love interest). Bassist Nate Mendel plays "Ned Bender" ("Saul Goode", the show's shady antagonist). Guitarist Chris Shiflett plays "Christopher Mishomotohama" ("Little Jimmy", a severely injured child). Drummer Taylor Hawkins plays "Ty Hawkstone" ("Les Groper", Davidoff's womanizing colleague). Grohl plays "Davy Grolton", who stars as the main doctor, "Hansom Davidoff". As seen in the opening credit sequence, the Foo Fighters portray the actors who in turn portray the show's characters. The music video of the song, directed by Jesse Peretz (who also has directed previous Foo Fighters videos "Big Me" and "Learn To Fly"), is a comedic spoof of a stereotypical 1970s-era hospital soap opera ( General Hospital in particular), and is essentially a " show within a show".
