A man innocently asks another where the nearest Capital One Bank branch is located. The other guy responds by summoning a push pin mapping software program on his laptop PC. A red push pin appears on a map pictured on the computer screen. But this locating system translates quite differently in the real world as giant push pins fall out of the sky and land in the streets outside bank branches citywide. The last pin drops right across the street from the coffeeshop where the original two guys are sitting.

Developed as part of the Ad Council’s partnership with the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) and created pro bono by agency StrawberryFrog, this public service campaign underscores the vital role young people can play in reversing opioid overdoses by carrying naloxone (often branded as Narcan or ReVive).
Directed by Haya Waseem via production company Object & Animal, this “It’s Gotta Be You” PSA shows how a girl answers the call to help save another young person.
