* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Rq7NrFEfPs In one Butterfinger commercial, Bart Simpson buries Homer in the sand at the beach so firmly that Homer can't move.] Bart takes this opportunity to steal Homer's candy bar, while in the background Homer is being menaced by crabs... and then the tide starts coming in...
* Similar thing happens in an Alltell commercial, with the nerdy personifications of Alltell's competitors stuck in the sand, buried by frustrated customers.

Cut to a 2 second stinger of sorts of the four, still buried, at night, surrounded by crabs, and screaming.
