With his rifle aimed at the infamous dictator, he feels a surge of adrenaline as he prepares to pull the trigger. However, just as he is about to take the shot, he is interrupted by a sudden noise, causing him to hesitate. This moment of indecision proves fatal, as he is quickly apprehended by Nazi soldiers who have been watching him closely. They take him captive, and he finds himself in a remote location, where they intend to dispose of him as a mere sporting accident.
