| Who has sex with whom in the Trapped in the Closet world |

The song generally follows a storyline which continues through all the chapters. Kelly plays the role of the song's protagonist, Sylvester, who wakes up after a one-night stand with a woman. As he prepares to leave, however, the woman begs him to hide in a closet, as her husband is coming into the room, explaining the origin of the song's title. This sets off a series of events, which reveals a greater string of lies, sex, and deceit.
