Young Thug puts on his fireman gear and drives a Slime F.D. truck to the scene,and finds Gunna "calmly writing a note like nothing is happening around him". As soon as Thug approaches Gunna,the house explodes from the blaze. The scene then cuts to Travis Scott on a gridiron field,where the fire has now reached.
