  You can’t because that video does not apply to free hosted WordPress.com blogs. It’s for WordPress.ORG installs only.

  There is no upgrade you can purchase that will provide FTP access and the ability to install plugins, upload themes, and/or edit templates and themes in a free hosted WordPress.com blog. To use plugins you must hire a web host and then set up your own WordPress.org install.
