The first two guys look wasted. They can hardly keep their balance standing up. They don't return a single punch. They seem unsurprised by the turn of events. They're both silent during the exchange. The cameraman is silent during the exchange.

The guy with the girlfriend starts swinging his arms within a split second, without assessing the situation. He doesn't say a word. The response is choreographed. I see three punches connecting, not hard.

Then everybody walks away together, proving the falsehood.



The drunks show their backsides. They're obviously not wearing belts. Some might find that amusing, but don't you just feel a sense of puzzlement at the waste of energy?
