Once you start smoking, the consequences will find you.
People using screen readers may not be able to fully view information in this file. We see a teen smoking in an empty basketball court at night. A van pulls up, and a delivery man with a package exits the car and walks towards the teen. Delivery Man: Package for James Meiser. The teen reluctantly accepts the package. He opens up the box and finds a hideously stained set of teeth. Male Voiceover: Once you start smoking, the consequences will find you. The teen is visibly disgusted. He turns to look at the delivery man, but finds that he has mysteriously disappeared. He looks back down at the box, and the set of teeth have disappeared as well, only to turn up in the teen’s mouth, much to his dismay. Male Voiceover: Cigarettes may leave you with stained teeth, gum disease, and more. Text is displayed: The Real Cost logo, TheRealCost.gov, FDA logo.

Not all surprises are fun. When you smoke, you could very well end up with an unexpected delivery you’ll wish you could return (Watts & Addy 2001).
