Doritos 2012 Super Bowl Commercial, Man’s Best Friend

Man’s best friend is the subject of this Doritos Super Bowl XLVI spot. The crimes of man’s best friend, to be exact. As Rossini’s “Overture” from “The Barber of Seville” plays, a man gardens in his yard. He looks over to see a missing cat poster on a nearby phone pole and his dog trying to cover something up in the mulch. The camera pans over to show viewers that it is the tags from Fluffy, the missing cat. His dog pushes over a bag of Doritos with a note reading “You didn’t see nuthin’” [sic] and the man looks up and understands. Later, his wife asks if he has seen the cat and the man looks up to see the dog outside the patio door with another bag of Doritos. The Dorito bribe works again and he answers that he has not.
