Shortly after Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) breaks Ulysses Klaue (Andy Serkis) out of CIA custody, the two prepare to depart from one another, when Killmonger suddenly decides to murder the goons who helped them pull off the operation.

A gunfight ensues in a junkyard, where Klaue grabs the female member of their squad and holds her at gunpoint, but Erik ruthlessly shoots through her to get to Klaue.

Killmonger eventually subdues Klaue, showing him the Wakandan marking on his lip before shooting Klaue dead. He then delivers Klaue's corpse to Wakanda in order to win the nation's favour and get an audience with T'Challa (Chadwick Boseman).

Above all else it was neat to see Klaue's storyline tied off, and Killmonger certainly lived up to his savage nickname.
