Two men are dining at a Subway restaurant, enjoying meatball marinara subs. Both men, entranced by their sandwiches enter into a dream sequence where they are drifting down a Venice canal on an Italian gondola. With Italian music playing in the background the two men, caught up in the romantic nature of their fantasy, they nearly lean in for a kiss but instantly retract once they realize what they’re about to do. The dream sequence ends and the two men are back in the restaurant. Embarrassed, and trying to compensate with something more macho, one man asks, "Did you see the game last night?” The other replies, “Of course I did.”

This ad was negatively rated due to the need to compensate for the men's masculinity in the last scene.
