It cuts to him meeting his assistant where Big Pun goes by the aliasSecret Agent 747 and that his mission is to "get the disk".
It cuts to a mansion where a night party is being held and Big Pun arrives and attracts a woman who tells him something as he goes off with his business. He gets into a room upstairs from the party where he finds a computer and searches through the drawers to find a disk that he broadcasts to people downstairs through a screen. It reveals that the businessman hosting the party was performing a sex act with a male dancer. Big Pun escapes with the disk through the window as the exposed duo go after him, as he jumps off the roof of the mansion and lands. Throughout the video, Noreaga is seen in front of a house rapping the chorus with Fat Joe in the background lip syncing the chorus.
As he fights off the exposed businessman's bodyguards, Noreaga arrives by car to get Big Pun away from the exposed duo who go after them in a van. Big Pun and Noreaga throw them off guard with explosives as their driving and have seem to lost them. The exposed duo later find their car parked near an abandoned warehouse where Big Pun and Noreaga are. They appear to be shocked when they hear broken glass and the exposed duo find Big Pun standing in front of them. It turns out to be a decoy with Big Pun and Noreaga watching from afar as the duo set off a tripwire that releases a butterfly net and traps them.
