"Escape" premiered on MTV's top-10 chart program Total Request Live on 30 January 2002, where it reached number one. The video closes with a scene of the theater being emptied, but Kournikova stands and waits in her seat until Iglesias comes over to her after the crowd has left. But, unlike the previous security guards, he leaves them undisturbed and drives away. The scene soon cuts to another scene where another security guard pulls up in a carpark and spots them kissing while lying across the front seats of a car. They continue kissing while sprawled across the bathroom sinks until two security guards pull them apart and take Iglesias away. She catches his eye in the mirror and turns around to kiss him. In the next scene Iglesias follows Kournikova into the ladies room. Once he arrives, he attempts to kiss her but she pushes him away. The first sequence is of Iglesias driving through a busy city on a motorbike while Kournikova awaits his arrival. Throughout the video, there are sequences of Iglesias and Kournikova's relationship. The video opens with a sequence of Iglesias performing the song, backed by a live band, in front of a huge crowd in a theater. It features Iglesias and tennis-player Anna Kournikova (who he would later propose to) as his love interest.
