Kaydee “Caine” Lawson and his best friend Kevin "O-Dog" Anderson enter a local store to buy malt liquor, where the Korean people cashier and his wife rush them to buy their beer and leave. After their purchase, the cashier insults O-Dog by saying he feels sorry for O-Dog's mother. Offended, O-Dog briefly argues with the cashier, then kills him and his wife, takes the surveillance tape, robs the clerk's wallet and the cash register, and flees the store with Caine.
