[Yeah no as soon as there is no longer a chair leg pointed his way, he's sidling further into the store but away from Alex, holding his bag up to his body like a completely ineffectual shield.
He's still not sure if he should be trying to pull out the knife or not, but leaves it for the time being. Maybe it will somehow miraculously be possible to end this encounter without any violence at all. Almost like those good old times before people were getting murdered left and right and he wasn't filming everything-
Shit. It occurs to him that he should really be filming this. Running into Alex is definitely important enough that he needs to have it recorded in case he forgets.
Fortunately, he's got his tablet in a pocket so he can easily pull it out without needing to mess with the bag. Small blessings, etc.]
