In the spot, “The Professional” comes through the television to tackle a “guac-ward” situation by directly interacting with a group of friends who were watching the big game together.
In Persil® detergent’s version of a ‘time out’, “The Professional” suddenly appeared on television to point out a big guacamole stain on the pink shirt of one of the friends. He then literally stepped out of the television and into the room. As the stunned, bemused group looked on, “The Professional” gave his “tip for that dip“: Persil® ProClean® laundry detergent delivers an exceptional clean to help tackle Game Day stains. After cleaning the guacamole stained shirt, “The Professional” stepped back into the television and threw the group a bottle of Persil®, leaving a friend wondering if they had all been hallucinating.
