It turns static before it fixes itself to reveal a sinner stabbing another demon to death with a knife before Alastor caught their attention.

As the camera rolls, scenes switches from the front of the Hazbin Hotel, to Charlie on camera and she waves at it before Angel Dust comes into view, putting two-fingers over the head prank behind her, to Charlie's interview with Katie  Killjoy, then a picture of her crying as she faces away from her father who was in the opposite direction under a spotlight, then her showing her plan via poster to a confused crowd, to the bartender, Husk, who was clearly drunk, passing out on the ground as Nifty, the hotel maid, tries to stab and chase after a bug, Fern, who is also a hotel maid just bashfully smiles and continues cleaning,  and then to Angel Dust, with a support beam falling close to Keekee, scaring the demon cat before running off, and Angel Dust flipping Alastor off, and then the poor drawing of the hotel before the commercial ends.

The camera turns on with static, "Well, hello there, you wayward Sinner! Do you like blood, violence, and depravity of a sexual nature? Of course you do, that's why you're in Hell! But what would you say if I told you there was a place to stay that had none of that? Welcome to the Hazbin Hotel, a misguided path to redemption! Founded five days ago by Lucifer's delusional daughter, Charlotte Morningstar!" Alastor says, he than continues, "Come place your fate in her inexperienced hands, as she tries to work through her daddy issues by fixing you! Here we offer fun things, such as somewhat functional staff and 24-hour pest control. Custom rooms, and just look at this tacky parlor! Enjoy riveting conversation with our singular resident. Wow! All this, and more at the Hazbin Hotel! Your last desperate attempt at salvation starts here!" Alastor turns off the television and asks, "So, what do you think?"

On the couch, Charlie and Vaggie were
surprised of the commercial being poorly
misleading and very offensive to their nature, that Vaggie throws a fit at Alastor.

"I'm sorry. What the fuck was that?" Vaggie questions angrily.

"Uh, Yeah. One note, Alastor, I mean, first off, thank you so much for making this seriously amazing, but um, maybe the tone is a bit off. We want people to want to come here. This makes it look, um.." Charlie tried saying to Alastor but trails off, leading Vaggie to bluntly say what needed to be said.

"Bad. The word you're looking for is bad."

"Funny. I was going for hilarious." Alastor tells the two.

"It didn't explain anything about how we're trying to save demons from extermination, which is the whole fucking point." Vaggie tells Alastor.

"Vaggie is right Alastor, the commercial was to let sinners know we are trying to help them." Charlie finally says.

"Well, my dear, I haven't been active in Hell for some time and everyone remembers me from my radio show, the proper medium to express oneself. But, you insisted on this noisy picture box advertisement." Alastor taps the television twice with his microphone staff. "So, I had a little fun with it."

"Oh, fun? You had a little fun with it?" Vaggie questions as she stands up, "Well, this is not what we want to represent us. When you showed up here a week ago, you told us you would help run this hotel. Instead, you're mocking us. Nobody's gonna wanna come to a place that a powerful overlord like you thinks is a waste of time."

Angel Dust raises his hand from the couch, catching everyone's attention.

"What?" Vaggie asks Angel Dust.

"If'n you're filming a commercial, can I suggest you take better advantage of the talented celebrity you have right here?" Angel Dust tells them.

Angel Dust takes a bottle with one arm before pointing all three arms at himself, but Vaggie doesn't like it.
