First, we see "typical black guy", smiling ear to ear, using ebonic slang just in case anybody watching the commercial is blind and unable to recognize that this product is also for blacks.

As a curious observer, you have to laugh at the suggestion that blacks can be defined by their mannerisms, except not when it comes to the stereotype of ever being the ones who, statistically, are more likely to break into your home.
