A TV has been left on in an abandoned storefront window. The following commercial plays for an audience of foraging raccoons.
“Tired of growing old?”
An actress wearing exaggerated old age makeup looks into the camera and frowns.
“What if I told you there was a way to stop the aging process?”
The actress nods, grinning excitedly.
“Introducing Dying Young! Just listen to this satisfied customer.”
“While working on my PhD, I just didn’t have enough time to focus on my appearance. Thank you, Dying Young!”
The camera pans down to a casket containing a beautiful woman in her thirties.
