Dementus introduces members of his Horde and afterwards The People Eater picks up a microphone and tells Dementus to choose one warrior from his Horde. He then tells Dementus to choose a War Boy. Dementus has Smeg choose a War Boy and Smeg points to a group of War Boys. At first First Pick War Boy steps forward, but Smeg says he chose Chosen War Boy. Chosen War Boy sprays himself in the mouth with silver spray paint and Immortan Joe tells him he is awaited. Chosen War Boy then takes two explosive spears and leaps to his death, causing a large explosion when he lands. The People Eater then says that anyone of Immortan's Joe's War Boys will do the same and calls Dementus and his Horde fools. Scrotus and Rictus then take the microphone, introduce themselves and tell the Horde they are going to kill them. The War Boys then start attacking the Horde who start to ride away. A Wretched grabs Furiosa and tries to drag her to Corpse Minder, but Dementus manages to pull her away and they escape.
