In the teaser, which was filmed shortly after the affair was exposed, Ariana can be seen confronting the TomTom bar owner. Defending his relationship with Raquel, Tom tells Ariana, "Me and Raquel became like really good friends."
Ariana, however, doesn't buy his words as she responds, "I don't give up a f**k about f**king Raquel. Your friendship is f**king bulls**t." Things get even more heated when Tom hits back, "You know everything!" At one point in the clip, Ariana declares, "I regret ever loving you."
