Please explain the Cesar dog food commercial

A guy dressed as a pilot is alone on the top floor of an office building, taking his dinner break like he might be a night watchman. He feeds his dog Cesar, then eats an open-faced sandwich himself.

Is he a pilot? A watchman? Why is he in a conference room alone? Why is his dog at work?

What are the words to the commercial?

I don't know but that dog is super cute

He's Lou the stew, & that's his emotional support animal.

They're French and it's pronounced sa-Zar

Yep, he's a watchman/security guard. He has his dog with him to prevent himself from dying of boredom.

My dog looks exactly like that. My mother calls when the commercial is on and asks me to make him bark. Everybody loves my puppy!

The costume is a bit confusing. Do security guards usually have epaulets?

He looks like he works in a museum night shift. Which is creepy. Hence the dog.

My neighbor works 2 jobs, his regular day job and is a security guard at night. He is allowed to bring his dog to work, he says he would never see him otherwise.

OP, you are right. That is a very confusing commercial. But there's almost no words, the music is not annoying and the dog is cute. As far as commercials go, it's about as good as you can get.

That commercial is not confusing. It's obvious a security guard playing around with his dog. Then, they have their dinner for the night. Super cute dog and entertaining commercial.

Thanks, r10. I'd never seen the full commercial, which now makes sense in the longer context — just the 10-second version on Hulu, which is just the final bit of them eating together.

It's a French ad. Been playing on French TV for years.

Fun fact: The background music was composed by Eric Satie. It’s a lovely little waltz called “Je te veux”.

Aww...love that dog.

I need to get a dog.

In the sequel, will they trade dinners?

That guy looks more like the doctor on the Love Boat. Who's ever seen a security guard who looks like that!

It's art. You wouldn't understand it, OP.

I thought it was made to vaguely suggest a Commissionaires uniforms.

They are a private security firm that recruit mostly ex-military and law enforcement personnel in Canada. Often working in government buildings.
