Commercial for Contac cold medicine; begins with a man sneezing loudly in a movie theatre; his wife asks if he took Contac for his cold, and he whispers something in her ear that makes her say that that only lasts four hours; he sneezes again, and the man in the row in front of him turns around and glares; shot of the tablets the man took and male voiceover: “interesting fact about what he took: its decongestant lasts only 4 hours per dose. For aches and pains, it contains aspirin, which can upset your stomach. (shot of Contac capsule) Contac lasts up to 12 hours per dose, and does not contain aspirin! Contac: 12 hours, not 4!”; back in the theatre, the usher flashes his flashlight in the man’s face and asks if there’s trouble, and he responds that someone didn’t take their Contac; ends with shot of Contac package and voiceover: “give your cold Contac!”
