Christ! The missles are flying -- what good is four minutes to you? What are you supposed to do in four minutes?
Dunno. Boil an egg?

Boiling an egg only takes three minutes. When I was a kid I loved hard boiled eggs for two reasons. The first was because I fucken loved the taste of them with a little butter over the yolk. The other reason was that boiling an egg takes three minutes and I knew it. It was a fact about the world that I knew and no one could chance.
So if the bombs are falling and you've got an early warning system that gives your four minutes you've got the chance to boil an egg and to do something else. Jack off for the last time, maybe. It's what I'd do.
