HiberNol

A coughing husband cannot get comfortable in bed, until a spokesman arrives with an enormous bottle of cold medicine and a matching dose cup. The treatment sends him into a sleep that lasts for months, turning ordinary symptom relief into human hibernation. Winter gives way to spring while his hair and beard grow unchecked. When he finally wakes, his wife has saved the football season on videotape, and the commercial treats his lost months as another satisfied customer experience.
