| - | Like I said, you'll never know who you'll run | 0:01 |
| into in a supermarket like Mrs. Glenn Campbell and her baby. | 0:03 | |
| - | Come on Kane, hand mommy the Pampers. | 0:07 |
| Pampers weren't around yet when Kelly and Travis were babies | 0:10 | |
| and disposable diapers weren't anything much to talk about. | 0:13 | |
| Then one day after Ken came along | 0:17 | |
| I asked Glenn to pick them up. | 0:18 | |
| Like the typical husband, he brought home another kind, | 0:20 | |
| Pampers. | 0:24 | |
| When I tried them and saw how much dryer they kept Kane. | 0:25 | |
| No more cloth diapers for this little guy. | 0:28 | |
| - | Did you ever take a close look at Pampers? | 0:33 |
| Well, I'm curious. | 0:35 | |
| I like to take things apart and see how they work. | 0:37 | |
| Let me show you what I found out. | 0:39 | |
| When I cut open a Pampers. | 0:41 | |
| Now don't you pull the plates out like I'm doing | 0:43 | |
| they help keep moisture inside where it belongs, but look | 0:46 | |
| see this part inside next to your baby. | 0:51 | |
| This part is called a stay dry lining , | 0:54 | |
| when you wet it the moisture passes right through | 0:56 | |
| and there's all this absorbent stuff underneath | 0:59 | |
| to soak it all up. | 1:01 | |
| Now that's really soaked. | 1:03 | |
| But the lining, the part that's next to Kane, stays dryer. | 1:05 | |
| So he stays dryer and on the outside it's waterproof. | 1:09 | |
| So nothing can get out that way. | 1:13 | |
| So of course you don't need plastic pants. | 1:15 | |
| Quite a difference from cloth diapers, isn't it? | 1:18 | |
| Try it for yourself. | 1:20 | |
| Tear up a pamper. | 1:22 | |
| Kane. | 1:23 | |
| Oh no, I didn't mean the whole box full darling. | 1:25 |
