From outside, Wallace enters the convience store. He stares in awe at the shear nastiness of the store - grime streaks the walls, puddles of candy residue cake the floor, the rickity shelves only contain a few cans of Pork'n'Beans in numerous vile flavours. There's a strange folk in the corner... A scabby greasy man with a green mohawk and fish tatoo, clutching a glass bowl to his stomach. Much to Wallace's distaste, he grabs a small fish out of the bowl, and proceeds to shove it into his mouth; after a few swift moves of the tonge, the goldfish's bones are picked dry and the weird man drops the remains onto the conviece store floor.
He turns his attention to the Slurpee machine in the corner. He tries to get some delicious sweet nectar from its steely innards, but to no avail; the machine is empty. Quite annoyed and dishearted, Wallace approachs the cashier of the store.
The cashier, Lambert, could hardly give a damn. This is his domain, he is a geek on a power trip. When the short, tattooed Wallace askes for assistance, Lambert simply brushes him off. After a brief standoff, Lambert cant talk it any more.
He jumps dramatically onto the countertop, animae background lines streaking behind him. he pulls shimmering salmon out from behind his back, and waves it in Lambert's face. Meanwhile, the fish-eatting fellow in the back of the store drops his bowl in suprise to gap at this new foodstuff. As Wallace swings the salmon dramatically over his shoulder, the fish monger licks his lips in hunger. With a solid swing, Lambert slams the salmon into Lambert's face, knocking him to the floor. As Lambert lays there stupidified, Wallace walks out of the store, dragging the salmon behind him, gesturing rudely. The Fish Monger chases him to the window, drooling as he passes, carrying the salmon in tow... until a truck from Wonder Willy's Aqua wonderland passes by, leaving the young man astounded.
