“I haven’t even been here a week. And my priority hasn’t been liquor. Given all the things apparently out to possibly kill us, weather and lack of technology included, alcohol may not be useful except as an antiseptic. Try the doctors maybe? Or send a text out. Hope you have something to barter.”

For goals perhaps it wasn’t the worst if it motivates the man not to give up hope.
