A man is sitting at a scrapyard with a sign saying Hank's Hardwear nearby. A customer walks in and waves at him, then asks for a white paint can. Hank hands him the paint can and the man happily pays for it and leaves.

The man puts down the paint can as he arrives home and smiles contentedly, then realizes he doesn't know how to open the can. He thinks for a moment, then goes back to Hank's Hardwear and asks for a crowbar. He tries using the crowbar to open the can, but it gets stuck on the can's lid. He then goes back to Hank and asks for a pickaxe.

The man tries opening the paint can with a pickaxe, but it gets stuck and the can remains unopened. He goes back to Hank's Hardwear and asks for an electric saw, but his attempt only results in a broken saw. As he arrives back at Hank's, the man has a wicked smile on his face as he asks for a C4 explosive.

The man hides behind some sandbags as the bomb ticks down next to the paint can. He watches it go off, then approaches the scorch marks on the ground, finding nothing remains. He smiles satisfied, but then the paint can falls from the sky intact. The man stares at it with a crazed look.

The man goes back to Hank's Hardwear looking furious. Hank looks at him with a pleading face. The man puts his palm to his face and simply asks for a Combine stun stick. He approaches the can with an angry look, then lifts the stun stick up to hit it. Elsewhere, Hank smiles as he looks at the large pile of money he's made. Suddenly, everything shakes violently.

Hank stares in confusion, wondering what the earthquake was. Meanwhile, the customer stares agape, painted completely white. Everything around him is covered by white paint as well. The end.
