"If I hear you talk again, I will slap you, get away from me Lumba. Kwasiade," he said.

In the same scene, Akrobeto warned the highlife legend never to set foot in what looked like his residence. He walked angrily to the driver's seat of his Toyota Venza and drove off.

Daddy Lumba nodded his head in disbelief and talked about the habit by some people treating others who once helped them poorly.

"Herh, people of today. People will never remember the good thing you did for them," Daddy Lumba said.

At the end of the scene, Daddy Lumba's Yɛ Nea Woho B3tɔ Wo (Yentie Obiaa), which means Do whatever makes you feel okay (Don't listen to anyone), was played. The song perfectly fit the tone of the scene.
