I need some matches
and two boxes of candles.
Karen, pick up a case of soap.
Why do you need all those candles?
We're thinking of opening
a candlelight restaurant.
And all that soap?
Are your customers going to have to shower
before they eat?
We're just going to the hills
to rough it for a while.
For a while?
For the rest of your lives, looks like.
Maybe. What's the tab?
$190.03.
Mister, I certainly appreciate this.
Along with that money,
let me give you some good advice.
As long as I ain't bound to take it.
Lock up the store, take all the merchandise
you can carry and hide it.
- Why? What for?
- You'll know soon enough.
This is my advice and it's free.
But you can't sell goods if you
got them hid. Now, that's crazy.
I gave you some advice, but like you said,
you ain't bound to take it.
- Anything else?
Not yet, but I can hustle him down here.
- Will you call him for me?
- Got a dime?
That's it.
Ed, get down to your store right away.
A crazy fellow's been in here,
just bought $190 worth of goods.
Yeah, in cash.
Now he's looking for a hardware store.
I thought of you.
Figured it might be worth, say,
5% of what he buys.
No, I ain't heard no explosion.
Just got up. No, I ain't had the radio on.
Main roads must be clogged.
It's starting to fan out this way now.
I'm going home and pack some things,
we're getting out of here.
Honey, I told you before,
we're a long way from LA.
- We've got nothing to worry about.
- I'm scared.
The radio said it could
be a nuclear attack.
"Unconfirmed," it said.
Look, we're still alive, aren't we?
We'll talk about it tonight.
Now go on, honey.
Morning.
You'd think they'd keep broadcasting.
This whole thing has got my wife
jumping out of her skin.
- Figure LA's had it?
- I don't know.
Where do you keep your handguns?
I don't carry many of these.
This .45's magnesium, light as a feather.
- How do you load it?
-It's real easy. Here.
- Slip it back in.
- All right, I'll buy it.
Take the rest of the stuff
and the ammunition out to the trailer...
while Mr. Johnson runs up the bill.
- Where you going?
- Up north.
I hear action's good around Claxton way.
Let's see now, that comes to $427.66.
Make it $420 even.
All right, I'll give you cash $220
and a check for the rest, all right?
All right. $220 will cover everything
but the guns...
which I'll hold for you
till day after tomorrow.
I don't take out-of-town checks.
- Day after tomorrow? We need them now.
- State law.
Hand guns have to clear records
with the police.
All hell may have broke loose in LA...
but the boys in Sacramento
Look, here's my driver's license,
