Bob walks through beach fog talking about wildlife and guns. The narrator arrives minutes too late and recalls two remarks: the gun is gone, and the speaker wants nothing to do with the two nuts.

The narrator's amusement depends on how little speech he can report after the fight. Bob's anger and the missing gun remain the concrete residue of the episode.
