They tease each other, with Levi wondering how it is that he's in Military Police Brigade after killing so many of their soldiers. Kenny notes that hiding here was a bad choice as he's cornered now and, after throwing a chair Levi's way, he states that he knows why Levi joined Survey Corps. Kenny then states how both of them struggled to barely survive in the undercity before being overwhelmed when revealed the complexity of the world. As he picks up another chair He then stated that like Levi, he had found a cause that he would pursue to the very end.

While Levi fights through the soldiers, killing several of them, Kenny, having been saved by the chair he was holding, gets up after his colleague teases him and praises Levi by noting how Levi was able to use that fact that saloon owners were allowed to wield firearms for self defense in order to turn the tables against his pursuers.
