This commercial gives me chills every time I watch it, and it is such an amazing example of using pathos to evoke emotion in your audience. From the beginning, you can't help but love Sarah and Juan, they are two high school teens who seem to fall in love with each other the moment their eyes meet, when she offers him a piece of gum after he helps her pick up her books. After their first date, he draws a picture to commemorate the evening on the back of an Extra gum wrapper. Throughout their little journey, he continues to draw pictures of them spending time together as they seem to fall more and more in love (AW!!!). The story reaches a climax when Sarah has to leave Juan, and they are seen hugging at the airport (I couldn't help but she a tear at this part). However, the couple makes it through a long-distance relationship (basically everyone's relationship goals) and Juan proposes to her after setting up a surprise are exhibit of all of his gum wrapper pictures! This commercial is so cute and tells a love story that anyone would love to have as their own. I don't even like gum, but I would buy Extra after watching this commercial!
