About This Video

In a fast-paced stream of events through alleys and with a police car—all underscored by the Black Eyed Peas song, “Where is the Love,” we watch the drama unfold and wonder if the young man is stealing or returning the purse—until the last triumphant moment.

Video Transcript

(Stand Alone Lyrics)
What’s wrong with the world, mama?
People livin’ like they ain’t got no mamas.
I think the whole world’s addicted to the drama.
Only attracted to things that’ll bring the trauma.
Yeah. Madness is what you demonstrate,
And that’s exactly how anger works and operates.
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight.
Take control of your mind and meditate.
Let your soul gravitate to the love ya’ll, ya’ll.

People killin’, people dying.
Children hurt and hear them cryin’?
Can you practice what you preach?
Would you turn the other cheek?

Boy: Ma’am!
Woman: (Gasps)
Boy: You forgot your purse.
Woman: Oh. You don’t know how worried I was. Thank you! Thank you very much!
Police Officer: Hey!

Voiceover: Honesty. Pass it on.

Police Officer: Nice move kid. Donut?

Voiceover: A message from The Foundation for a Better Life.

(Lyrics Underneath Above Dialogue)
Father, Father, Father help us,
Send us some guidance from above.
‘Cause people got me, got me questionin’,
Where is the love?
The love, the love.
Where is the love?

This is one of my favorite ads. I knew the first time I saw it that boy was going to do the right thing. It helps me have faith in mankind, there are more good people than bad. It's just that we always hear about the bad, not the good. Just yesterday, I saw a young man chase down a lady in the parking lot at Walmart, she had a very full cart and 3 kids in tow, and was making her way back to her car. A large bottle of laundry detergent had fallen off of her cart, and she didn't notice. This young man grabbed it and ran after her and gave it to her. He had piercings, tattoos, the whole lot. As he turned towards me after giving it back, I told him, "Your mama raised you right!" He just shrugged, and said, "no big deal".

It made me think of what I would do and how all people should be like that.

You need to make it so that you can share you wonderful commercials. They are great!

I think the guy had a right to do that because there might be some private stuff in that bag.
