[ Not like Kirk was much better in the paying attention department. Give him some credit, most of his warnings came from an alarm system and a giant screen on a spaceship. Yeah he had been here for a few months, but some habits are hard to break and it was a grocery store in Luceti, not LA. He wasn't about to get held up at gun point.
So, no, he wasn't paying attention, and he was coming around the corner kind of hot. And smack into Kankuro. And of course, flour bags are never as secure as they should be, especially when hit with some force, so both of them would be getting hit with a cloud of the stuff, setting Kirk to coughing and unflatteringly spraying bits of apple as he did.]
