There are many eve of the offensive conversations I would love to have been a fly on the wall for.
Inside the Trojan horse, say, with that ancient Greek SAS unit bantering the day away before busting out for their daring small hours raid.
Or inside the Jaguar marketing department on the night before their new rebrand as these crack experiential troops prepared to release this week's new ad on an unsuspecting luxury car market.
Picture the champagne corks popping as the socials are timed to post the video at the appointed hour.
I hope the pre-order guys are ready for an onslaught because we've got eight capital D diverse models in category five tool busting out of a pink planet lift, wielding a hammer and precisely no cars.
Let's make some sales history.
Anyhow.
Arguably, it's gone slightly worse than the wooden horse, which, when you think about it, was one of the most successful high-performance vehicles in history-slash-mythology.
Sure, it was oversized, over-reliant on heritage materials, and probably took corners like a supertanker.
And yet, I defy you not to take your hat off.
No one said urban warfare couldn't be quirky and design-led.
Back in the present day, meanwhile, marketing folklore is already building up around the Jaguar campaign, which made its debut this week to reactions ranging from vocal bemusement to vocal derision.
As far as I can make out, the best this ad's defenders can come up with is that the internet is talking about it, which feels like one of those mad, missing-a-step startup memes.
It's Uber, but for socks.
It's Airbnb, but for salads.
It's SpaceX, but for a weird car you can't buy yet.
Not that there aren't various people saying obdurately that they completely love it, even though it's obviously tired and boring and about as brave as using your platform at the Oscars.
But the one thing we can be absolutely sure of is not a single one of those defenders will be buying a single one of these cars.
And, regrettable newsflash, selling cars does remain the core mission of a car company.
In fact, hilariously, there aren't even any cars to buy for a while because Jaguar will now halt output entirely for at least a year with three new EVs not due for sale till 2026.
