Taylor Swift packs 'Opalite' with Easter eggs. All the clues we found

Taylor Swift fans may be sleepless in the onyx night, combing through her newest music video, "Opalite," for the winks, nods and hidden Easter eggs she loves to plant.

The '90s-drenched visual brings back her full "The Graham Norton Show" lineup of Domhnall Gleeson, Cillian Murphy, Jodie Turner-Smith, Greta Lee and Lewis Capaldi, each dropping in for playful cameos.

Trash and green and black 'TV'

The video opens with dancer Karen Chuang starring in a hilariously chipper infomercial for "Opalite" spray. She sits in a cubicle beside a green oozing trash can, coughing dramatically as Murphy narrates, "Hey pal, why so glum? Have you been feeling unsatisfied in life?"

The first wink of the video is a visual echo of the opening lyrics: "I had a bad habit / Of missing lovers past / My brother used to call it / 'Eating out of the trash.'"

The "Opalite" spray bottle is in the orange and green hues of the album "The Life of a Showgirl." And the magic elixir is able to turn garbage into Jan Ravnik, Swift's pinup backup dancer.

Swift lounges in a floral nightgown with her hair tied back in a scrunchie. Showgirl feathers arranged in a vase sit beside the fireplace. At 0:52, behind her on a bookshelf sits a green and black spine stamped with a bold "TV," short for "Taylor's Version." The two colors could signify her next announcement being the rerecorded version of her first album, "Taylor Swift (Taylor's Version)" or the "Reputation (Taylor's Version)" vault tracks. The book is seen again at 1:03.

In the 1970s, pet rocks were a trend. Swift leans into that craze as a pink box dubbed "My best friend!" sits on the floor opened because the rock is next to her on the couch.

As she fumbles with a paper fortune teller, the singer-songwriter wears a black and gold Sagittarius archer necklace, a nod to her birth sign.

George Michael nod and 'Anti-Hero' goo

In the next shot, she's perched on her bed in overalls making a friendship bracelet for her rock that reads "Friends4Ever." On the bed is the CD sleeve for George Michael's "Faith," the album containing "Father Figure," which Swift interpolates on "Showgirl." A poster of Michael hangs on her wall as she ties the ribbon of her red dress.

Swift smears a sparkly substance across her cheek, the same glittery goo from her "Anti-Hero" video representing her self-effacing lyric, "Sometimes I feel like everybody is a sexy baby / And I’m a monster on the hill." That goo becomes a recurring motif, resurfacing during her magical meet-cute later in the video.

Swift then brings her rock to a bar where backup dancer Raphael Thomas is the bartender. On the television, Greta Lee appears as an indie rocker performing. Dancer Natalie Reid approaches to take the barstool beside her, but Swift waves her away because the seat is reserved for her stone.

In the next sequence, Jodie Turner-Smith fronts a jazzercise-style workout video as dancers Tori Evans and Sydney Moss join in, while Swift does the routine at home in a bright pink windbreaker that comes back stronger than a '90s trend.

Gleeson's cactus and Austin Swift

Then comes the second verse starring Domhnall Gleeson, whose character is hopelessly devoted to his cactus. Even while the cactus pricks him in bed, he remains loyal. His bedside clock reads "12:12," a nod to "The Life of a Showgirl" being Swift's 12th album.

The next day, Gleeson plays pool with the "13 ball" strategically in frame, honoring Swift's signature number. When he escorts his cactus to the mall, he attempts to buy two tickets from dancer Kevin Scheitzbach but gets rejected. On the wall is a line, "Patient for the encore."

At dinner, a painting of Portofino, Italy, hangs behind him, referencing the location name-dropped in Swift's song "Elizabeth Taylor."

By 2:41, the video transitions into a chaotic ugly sweater Christmas party where Swift’s brother Austin Swift appears alongside backup vocalists Melanie Nyema and Eliott Nicole. The energy shimmers into Swift and Gleeson's official meet-up as they both purchase "Opalite" spray.

He spritzes his cactus, she spritzes herself, and she's instantly transported to him, glitter goo and all. They play a paper fortune teller labeled with "opalite," "onyx," "sapphire" and "moonstone," threading together the gems mentioned in the lyrics of "Opalite" and “Bejeweled."

A mall of song lyrics

Their romance unfolds in a mall montage, complete with Lewis Capaldi as their portrait photographer. Around them, fictional boutiques reference Swift's lyrics: "Softer than a kitten," "Sweeter than a Peach," "Dear Protege," "Keys City" and "Infamy Loves Co."

The video barrels toward chaos when Graham Norton appears wielding "Nope-alite," an anti-happiness spray that turns dancer Sam Mcwilliams into a stapler, ripping him from his faux relationship to backup dancer Whyley Yoshimura.

Swift and Gleeson then run into their exes — the cactus and the rock — whose friendship bracelet now reads the unfiltered lyric from "Mad Woman": "F***U4Ever." A poster featuring Cillian Murphy advertising "Opalite" with "Don't Sweat It" hangs on a mall wall.

Finally, Swift and Gleeson enter a disco dance competition in matching bedazzled tracksuits, where judge Kam Saunders rolls his eyes and holds up a zero. Swift and Gleeson still find the joy, celebrating before the credits roll showing where the idea first formed on the "Graham Norton Show."
