I eventually saw that she had a car full of crap, and had receipts for none of it. Anyway, I told her that if she left the store with the alternator, that I'd call the police (I had a phone in my hand). She walked to the front of the store with the alternator to walk out with it. I followed her to the front (5-10' behind her) carrying the phone. At one point, she turned around and called me a cracker. It was weird, confusing, and funny.
