Hector thought it wise to leave the happy go lucky Mjekejeke alone in the getaway car. When Harriet and Hector were confronting Brutus, Mjekejeke mistakenly fired a shot causing Harriet to shoot first when she reacted to hearing a gunshot.

After the first shot, a shootout broke out, and Brutus wasted no time getting his boys together. Brutus was angry as he felt disrespected.

When he finally armed himself, Brutus talked to his weapon saying in isiZulu:

"Oh, Nthandokazi yam, Oh! Mshiniwami [Oh my beloved, my mean machine]"

Brutus proceeded to win the war by firing an automatic weapon at the invaders who had to run away. Hector sighed during the hail of bullets, wishing he had "brought more men".
