Infirmide!

"Hey, you!"

In front of a purple background, a man perks his head up. He looks around. He's confused. He points at himself.

"Yes, you! Are an Industro?"

The man nods.

"Do you have strong powers?"

The man nods, smiling.

"Are they, perhaps, TOO strong?"

The shot pans out. The man's left arm and legs are engulfed in flames but he doesn't flinch. He sheepishly nods, looking to the ground.

"Chances are, you have the condition known as Exsupindustro Syndrome, or ES for short."

A diagram pops up to the left of the man. He looks at it quizzically. There are twenty stick figure people. They're all yellow, save for one. That one is bright red and at the very end.

"Research shows that one in twenty Canadians are born with ES, where they have powers too strong for them to control. This puts both their lives and their friends and families' lives in danger. From exhaustion with excessive power usage, to the destruction of property, this condition affects their everyday lives."

The diagram zooms in on the lone red stick figure. The man points at himself, then at the stick figure, signalling to the audience that he is just like the red stick figure.

"Lucky for you, there's an easy solution!"

The shot changes. A bottle of pills pops into frame. The label is yellow, the lid dark purple. The name is displayed in big writing.

"What you need is Infirmide!"

The lid pops off and the bottle is tipped over. An oblong yellow pill falls out.

"Infirmide is made to water down your power's strength to a safer, more manageable level. That way you AND your loved ones can stay safe!"

It's the man's face again. He holds out his non-flaming hand and a pill falls from the sky into his palm. He swallows it and smiles. The stick figure turns yellow. The shot pans back out and the flames go out in a cloud of smoke. The shot returns to the man's smiling face. He gives the camera a thumbs up.

"Infirmide: Weaken your power, strengthen your future!"

"Ask your doctor if Infirmide is right for you. Side effects may include fatigue, dizziness, nausea, loss of appetite, headaches, or sudden chills. Do not take Infirmide if you are taking Industrozol, Industrozol Vita, or Industrozol Utero. Discuss Infirmide and Infirmide alternatives with your doctor if you are taking other medications or are pregnant."

The shot changes to a logo. It's simple. It says MHHA. Underneath the logo is some writing. "Martin Heroes Health Association," and "A super you for a super future," and in small writing at the very bottom of the screen, it says "Endorsed by the Legion of Heroes."

"God, finally. Ugh, I hate unskippable ads. Well at least I can finally see the Will-o-Wisp versus Wolfsbane Devil fight Jackie was telling me about... God this quality is awful, why does the wifi suck so much in my room? Whatever. I just hope it's as cool as she says it is..."
