"come on man you know I'm good for it," Violet says as she scratched at her neck. She needs these drugs but unfortunately Earl was the only one who could supply them in the area
"Vi sweetie I know you're good for it but I'm running low. So the demand is there but supply isn't. Ergo the price is going up, it's now 50 gallons fresh water for them," Earl says in his long drawl.
"50! You said 40 last night!" Violet cries out loudly.
"That was before I leaned you had a reverse electrolysis set up," he grins, "now I'll just assume you forgot to mention that little tidbit last time we talked. So I'm only charging 50 even."
"You're a bastard you know that right?" Violet growls as she signals her husband to lower the additional ten gallon jugs onto the payment platform for Earl.
"I ain't the dumbass who only looted alcohol and electronics at the start of this shit show," Earl says pulling a package from his front pocket and handing it to Violet who snatched it away.
"Congratulations on your purchase. If you don't like the prices you should learn how to make condoms!" Earl shouts at the departing Violet who gives him the finger as she gets in the cart beside her husband.
"Did you get them?" He immediately ask. "yes I got the damn birth control. You're lucky I love you" she shoots back and stays silent as they ride away.
