The spot features a martial-arts-style food fight where a man runs into a convenience store to grab a weapon. He's followed by the other combatants, and everyone involved grabs a different food or beverage to fight with. The cashier makes everyone stop to pay, and the protagonist is able to make his purchases quickly with &zwnj;Apple Pay&zwnj; on his iPhone while the fighters he's facing off against struggle with their wallets. In the course of the fight, one of the fighters grabs the protagonist's iPhone and tries to make a purchase, but can't because Face ID verification is required.
